Hi everyone,
So I've had my 2000 KZN185 Hilux Surf (1kz-te) which was imported from Japan many years ago since 2014 and I never had this happen until recently.
See the attached YouTube clip of a dashboard alarm going off anytime the vehicle touches 110km/h or above.
I did some major electrical work last year (had a main harness short, had to rewire and fix a bunch of blown fuses etc). Only after doing that did this speed alarm start happening. The electrician who did the work has no idea about it or what he could have done to have re-enabled it.
The vehicle reverse alarm has always worked (the same exact noise), but never the speed alarm. I'd like to keep the reverse beep (which is a nice safety feature off-road) but cut the very very annoying 110kmph speed alarm.
I've seen a LandCruiser 80 thread here about it but no one offered any solution, just some discussion.
I'd appreciate any help I can get.
PS. Put it in this forum since the 4runner guys won't be of much help since they don't have that alarm for their 4runners as far as I know. I think it is a 90s JDM thing.
Thanks
