Help Identify this blank switch (GX460 2022) (1 Viewer)

[jackajm]

I am currently planning out a light bar installation for my new GX460, however, my vehicle does not have a blank small switch spot. I saw that I do have a blank spot above the odometer reset button but cannot find anything online similar to the blank. If any of you can help me determine if a switch exists as seen circled in the photo, that would be great. If something doesn't exist what are my other options.

Have you looked at any of the international Prado's or GX's? Maybe check the Canada manuals in our manual's sticky post. In the earlier models, Canada had options we couldn't get down here in the U.S.
If nothing else, stick a light or compressor switch there!

So, it's a view switch! I'll look around and see what comes up.

Pg. 301 in our manuals. Guessing it's only for those equipped with off-road package?

I guess so...

Also, I found a picture from a Prado, that looks similar in size, however, the GX switch has a cut in.

I also found these switches: Toyota Push Switches - Switches - Products - https://www.aironboard.com/online/products/switches/toyota-push-switches.html?rockerswitch_type=15&toyota_model=432

Man that's fly, I'd love to have that feature. Guess I can do it the poor man's way. LOL

Yes its the view option. allows for 360 view and under car scan.
I noticed a youtube video of this being demoed, on a luxury but didn't have Crawl Control which was surprising.

7:40 off road but no crawl control

Button used to be on the steering wheel in 10-19 years when optioned with external cameras

20+ you can get this on a Luxury trim without off-road package in US market

Button on 10-19 models

@jackajm
I’m in the same boat as you and that little view button might make a good switch.
Have you had any luck on finding a part number for this little thing? Or did you go a different route.

I ended up just removing and replacing one of the larger switches. It was the automatic high beams.

I actually find that one kinda useful, so I'm thinking about removing the cluster dimmer/adjuster instead. I figure that one I just set and forget.

For me it was the most unused switch. I prefer controlling my high beams.

Or remove the headlight washer button… they automatically spray when using your windshield washer when your headlights are on.

 

[Kajun]

True. Good idea.

Or with some of the new steel bumpers, it deletes the headlight washer altogether, as happened when I got my MetalTech bumpers.
Hadn't considered repurposing that switch, great idea! I don't have an immediate use for it, but I may in the future.

 

[Acrad]

Just an FYI..Unless the logic has changed you get one headlight wash before headlights have to be turned off and back on …just an fyi in case one thinks washers happen every time windshield is cleaned with headlights on.

Curiosity got the better of me, so I did some digging. If anyone is interested here is what I found. Unfortunately I didn't copy the source link to these diagrams and now I can't find them. They are for the 2021 MY and show the switch with Multi Terrain View switch.

I was able to find what I believe to be the two switch PNs for item #3 84970E (w/ and w/ out the view button). They are pasted at the bottom of the second photo.

Amazing!

I would like to find a solution to mount the Red Arc trailer brake controller. The only blank I have is the "view" button, and the ODO button takes up both spaces as a single unit.
