Back switches may be a bit worn. Got one to go down a bit but not up. I have already replaced the master switch with the eBay/SwitchDoctor unit (very happy).
Thanks again for a great mod!

Nothing else. Just windows and sunroof. It's the Power Main Relay, not the Main Power Relay. So there.
Not that easy. You need to remove the hot side of the relay logic and replace it with a small jumper from another fuse in the panel that's hot with the key in the ACC position. I think I used the CIG fuse. It's all done from the rear of the fuse panel.
I think I will do this but wire it to a switch instead of just a jumper. I don't want my windows live all the time (my dog hangs out in the back and can roll down the windows by stepping on the switch), but I also don't want to have to turn the truck on every time I lower/raise the windows.
This is great, thanks.
This is great, thanks.
Now THAT is a good idea. You could easily switch the logic side of the relay to a dash location. The only caveat is you have to remember to turn it off when you get out and back on when you get in.
Did you test to see if there is an obstruction circuit on the windows? I know there is one on the driver's front window if the auto feature is used.
I'd hate to see some kids get hurt playing around a truck with the relay defeated.

Could you give more details on this mod? Or send me to a link. Both mods would be awesome! I did the auto up mod already.

Watching this video will get you started. It offer up a couple different options.

good point, a switch and a relay and the windows will be live with ACC and/or when the switch is depressed...
Thanks!
Yeah, I'd rather keep the relay in the equation as well
I've actually been thinking about using a timer relay and a momentary switch to activate the accessory circuit temporarily
I'm already using a couple in my dual battery system as well as my surveillance system and they work great
Got a whole box of these things too

Just realized a free bonus to the LCP window mod
The relay you remove is the same relay used by the EFI system (90987-02004).
Toyota was kind enough to provide you with a convenient place to store it in the main fuse box under the hood. Just plug it into the unused socket (labeled -CDS FAN) in the main fuse panel (see photo) for safe storage. When your EFI relay acts up or goes bad you now have a spare.

Incredible bonus! Best mod for the money hands down.
Mod proved to be to much for my five and a half year old interstate battery. After sitting for four days truck was turning over slow. I'm sure I will reinstall when I get a new battery

If 1 watt kept your LC from starting after 4 days you needed a new battery anyway
Yeah That's what I figured. It is a 75mo. megatron 700 cca, but I really rode the thing hard and put it away wet. (stereo on all night numerous times, headlights on with truck turned off etc.) It took a full charge and is working well now, but I'm sure it's just a matter of time
I'm shopping for new battery right now
