It turns off the motion detection for the alarm (inside the truck).

This is what it probably is, assuming that you have the TVIP V5 (RS3200 PLUS) alarm system. Is this where it is (from pg. 15 of the installation instructions):

If so, it is the "Radar Sensor Off Switch."
 
I bet you are engineers.

I understand that you really, really want to start an argument.

Arrogant Turd,

What I understood Ben to say is the new speaker technology used in the FJC uses the headliner as part of the speaker. It appears you want to quibble about specifics.

Here is what NXT says on their website link that you posted above:

The NXT-based roof liner loudspeaker system works in tandem with the FJ Cruiser's conventional speakers to create a truly impressive audio performance that fills the cabin with a rich, clear sound.

NXT's fundamental technologies are the Distributed Mode Loudspeaker (DML) and the Audio Full Range loudspeaker (AFR). Common to both technologies is the ability to control and deal with the natural modes of a panel speaker system. DML provides techniques to turn almost any shape/size panel into a loudspeaker, whilst AFR confers specific solutions for circular panels.


It seems to me that Firetruck hit the nail on the head and that you continue to twist his words around to make the point that you are more knowledgable on the FJC minutiae than Ben and the rest of us are.

K9Crazy- I apologize for letting this thread get so off track, I was initially just trying to pass on some interesting information that I thought might be useful to someone.

vegasgolds- I apologize if my characterization of the headliner as a speaker confused you, when it is actually only part of the speaker, instead of the entire speaker unit.

For others, I apologize if my generalization of the term "speaker" has caused any distress. I can not promise to never make such a mistake again, as I am only human. For instance if you have a spark problem with your engine I may recommend that you "replace the spark plug wires", when I actually mean you should replace the spark plug wires and the coil to distributor wire, which comes in the same box as the spark plug wires. Please expect these egregious mistakes from me to continue, and feel no need to reply to them unless you feel that I have substantively confused or misdirected someone.

Ben you ignorant slut,
Why do you insist on referring to them as spark plug wires when they are actually spark plug cables? Any idiot can tell the difference.

If this is true .. it would be nice for pet owners. My cat was forever setting off the alarm.

THAT'S IT!!!! Looks just like it! I didn't even know I had that alarm system...i'll have to do some more research!

Thanks so much!
 
Indeed, that is exactly what this thing is. Apparently I was supposed to get a booklet that covers the system, but didn't. The dealer goofed and will have one in the mail to me today! Thanks for all your help! PROBLEM SOLVED!

Not exactly. We still have the issue with Ben, poor thing. We should continue this malicious attacking of his character and intelligence until we force him into submission.

What about the little rubber boot things that are attached to the dizzy and, at the other end, the spark plug? Do you just replace the "cable" or "Wire" that runs between them, or do the boots come attached to the cable? Is that something I need to buy sep?

No problem. Glad to help!
 
wth, there's speakers in the headliner?
 
OK well after reading through all the crap in this thread, I'm in the same scenario as the original user that posted this except that the answer was never really defined. Unfortunately I bought my FJ used from a dealer. It only had 8k miles but...no instruction booklets of any kind. I'm fairly certain that the button is to disable the internal motion sensor but does anyone know how? Do I just press it after I turn the vehicle off? How do I know that I've activated it (or turned it off rather) because there are no visible indications that anything has changed? Anyway, if anyone has a .pdf of the alarm system, that would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Don

I was told it is for the speakers in the headliner. If you have the FJAMMER stereo it comes with speakers on each side of the dome light. You have to put your ear up against the headliner to tell exactly where the sound is coming from.


It is not for the speakers in the headliner. The two speakers in headliner are part of the 9 speaker system that comes with 6cd changers system and my subwoofer. they are slightly behind driver and passenger head positions and if you place your hand on liner you can feel them working all the time. They are only there if you got the Upgrade Package 1 or 2 with FJammer cd system....I have Upgrade 2 with subwoofer and they are there. They are 1/4" thick and up in headliner...new flat panel transducer speaker type....talks about them in owners manual and on Toyota website if not mistaken.

Rear parking assist has waves going from rear bumper to rear....yours is to turn off interior alarm sensor as stated above.

I suggest you contact the dealer and have them send you the appropriate booklet. The button does in fact deactivate the interior motion sensors. I'd guess that as long as you push the button before alarming the vehicle, then it would work. Supposedly there is a light that comes on. I think it is located just below the passenger seatbelt/airbag warning light, on the right side of the center dash panel.
