    Installed a CompuStar remote starter in my '96 LX450, with detailed information

    1. Because I wanted to. The connection was readily available and I prefer simple and elegant. 2. Not something I'm interested in. 3. Because I wanted to. Any potential future troubleshooting is made easier when the connections are one to one. Again, I prefer simple and elegant. 4. No issues at...

    HOW TO: Detailed DIY for Remote Start/Alarm/Keyless Entry

    My post is based around an LX450. I know the connectors have different designations between the Lexus and the Toyota, annoyingly, and I haven't looked into the uniformity of wire colors, but the connectors themselves and wire terminations should be the same between Lexus and Toyota. The Toyota...

    Nardi Steering Wheel Install Including OEM-Style Horn Wiring in LX450

    Thanks for the info. I'm not as worried about the gaps around the base of the hub though, because I'm technically not finished with this project. I'm still planning on adding the cruise control stalk back in, including fabricating a small bracket to hold the stalk, and I plan on covering the...

    Nardi Steering Wheel Install Including OEM-Style Horn Wiring in LX450

    I couldn't say for certain, but I believe everything from 95 to 97 is essentially the same It's actually a similar shade and matches quite well Cheers

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    I took a look at the wiring diagrams again. I overlooked that the door lock control relay for some reason also controls the power relay that controls +12V for the power windows. I think that might be for the power window operation after the vehicle is turned off but before the door is opened. If...

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    When you say you "connected the terminals", what terminals, new terminals for a new "door" connector? What are those terminals wired to, it looks like you have some sort of wire loom? The idea should be to connect those 5 terminals together, is that what you did? Cheers

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    No problem. I happen to like wiring, and I somewhat recently diagnosed and fixed my own problem with the power windows, so the circuiting was all pretty fresh in my mind. The only difference is that in the LX450, it's connector BN1 instead of BJ1. Cheers

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    I downloaded a copy of the Toyota Wire Harness Repair Manual a while back. There's a lot of good info in there. You can identify part numbers for connectors as well as terminal sizes. In addition to that manual, if you didn't already know, nearly every electrical connector on these vehicles was...

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    That's connector BJ1. You're going to want to connect terminals 12, 15, 16, and 17 with 11. To do that, you'll need to get the door side of BJ1 from Toyota, which is either 90980-10811 or 90980-10810. Then you'll need the terminals, either pins or sockets, depending on which of the connectors...

    How to make rear windows work with tube doors?

    Where are you disconnecting the door harness from the body harness? What connector are you disconnecting and where is it located? Cheers

    80 Series -- Passive Grounding System?

    Do you mean "positive ground"? Some older cars, especially those cursed with Lucas electrics, had a positive ground system. Every modern vehicle, including 80 Series', has a negative ground system. Cheers

    Head Unit GPS

    I'm not sure about any of those specifically, but it's the Alpine ILX-F309 head unit, and it supports Android Auto and Apple Carplay. I have an Android phone, so I use Google Maps on Android Auto for navigation all the time, and it works quite well. Cheers
