Pure gold! My manual-trans '07 didn't come with the A-TRAC button and I always wondered if I could add it. I would subscribe 100x again just for this tip. You just made my day. Now I also want to add the "Alien Abduction Request" switch.
Thanks man. You've helped me learn my rig in just a few minutes. Just got my 08 super moded FJ and Im so excited to get out on the trail. I live in the PNW, so I will be able to finally access some of the countries most beautiful places within a few hours of me.
bought a 08 trail teams edition less than a month ago and never could find out how to turn on the lights on the front bumper so I thought they were broken but turns out you just need to have high beams on. this channel has helped me out so much in the last month I knew I had to subscribe. Love your content and please keep making more.
This is such a helpful video! I bought an 08 earlier this year and I love it! But I honestly didn't know what the drivetrain buttons do. I MIGHT take it out on a trail one of these days. I was fortunate to find one that was garage kept (near mint condition). I put a cheap set of Amazon rock gliders on it. She's just so pretty that I'm afraid to put any scratches on her, haha.
thanks so much for the definitions. What I've learned is my 2010 is really basic. No RR locker (which i should have figured out before I bought it) appreciate your time and explanations!
Excellent explanation of the FJ switches! We have an 07 & 12 and this video is very helpful, thank you! I think video would make Akio Nishimura happy. Thumbs up!
I think this answers my question. I have a 2014 FJ and noticed today that although I don't have either a diff lock button not an A Trac button, if I pop both blanks out they have the wiring attached.
Love your channel! I really appreciate the super informative and well researched format, and you cover literally everything I can think of. Thanks for what you do and I hope you keep doing it!
Thanks for clearing up the idea does your A-Trac work with the rear lockers on. I have a 2013 I thought it did. You're the second person to say yes. I'm one of those that uses my A-TRAC more than my lockers. As my FJ has done trails like gold mountain in big bear with just A-TRAC. And it's rated 8 out of 10 trail. But it's really about a 6. Love the A-TRAC button.
What a Great Vid. However, with a Raunchy Case of OCD & ADD, I'm going to have to watch this about 20 times before I truly 'get it'. Cripes, why so many Changes between models??? Well it's all good stuff no matter what.👊
0:55 Heeeeey Odom Point! I drove my FJ up Engineer Pass in June. BEAUTIFUL trail! Only problem was all the Jeeps were following me and making me find the line for them lol
Great info! I have switches that I still don’t know what they do. They’re weird switches. A couple look similar to a light switch. One lights up while the other doesn’t. One is below the dash and the other is to the left of the steering wheel (it lights up). Edit: I have a 2013
Hayden, New subscriber and loving your channel! Appreciate all of your time and research that you’ve put out there for us “newbies”. I recently picked up a 2014 FJ with 4WD Automatic Transmission. I was checking your switches video and realized that my FJ doesn’t have the Rear-Diff, A-trac, OR crawl control switches…. Have you ever heard of this? Does that mean the RDiff lock is automatic? Sorry for the newbie question, but appreciate any help you could offer. And thanks again for all of your great videos 👍
+1 for ATRAC, I've needed my rear diff locker maybe 5-6 times in 10 years of wheeling in Colorado. ATRAC is amazing for our terrain here in Colorado. If you live somewhere that you need wheel speed to dig -- mud, snow -- then ATRAC is not a great solution as it limits wheel speed.
Regarding the VIP button, there is also the VIP microphone that’s a passive slot into one of the blanks. I believe it acts as a vacuum mic in the event a window is smashed in. Not too sure but my ‘08 FJ does not have the button to disable.
I have never seen a single toyota of any model that came with every switch offered most switches are offered on select models even back in early 2000s a limited still didn't have every switch some switches were sr5 specific and some were sport specific and some limited specific it's rare to see any model that has all switches and dosent have atleast 1 or 2 blanks
@@chainlink4241 I had it all repaired at a Toyota dealer, total about $5k. (Airbags were $1332 x2, seat belt assemblies $145 x2, and a few sensors, plus around $1k labor.) The headliner was a little wrinkled and replacing it would have cost another $1500 but it wasn't that bad so I just kept the old one. I'm glad I did, you can barely see the wrinkles now. Didn't file an insurance claim due to it being sort of hooning in the dunes. The service bill said 'customer jumped truck' lol. My gf was recording video when it happened (on my page tho it's kinda far back).
@@mh_vegas That's good you were able to repair it all, I've heard a lot of stories of FJ Cruisers being totaled out by insurance for blowing the air bags. I just watched the video, glad nobody was hurt by them.
My aussie delivered special order version is entirely diferent. I love seeing all the options. Id love a subwoofer switch but they want over $100 here for one.
I have a 2007 TRD with a 10/06 build date. What would be the status of the A Trac system and the RR locker? I am so confused. Original owner, 230000 miles. Replaced the alternator 2x only problem thus far. Off pavement about 40% of the time, need the 4WD in inclement weather; heavy rain, ice and snow. Almost as stuck proof as my '85 FJ60. Can't wait until December to buy a new FJCruiser. My Grandson gets the TRD.
Thank you so much for the video!! I know this is a super later comment but I had a question that you might be able to help with. I recently bought an Fj that was manufactured February 06 and in the video you mentioned that between October-March of 06 that A-track and the RR diff lock doesn’t work together. What about the models made before march if 06 and since mine was manufactured in February of 06 can I still do the wiring hack to make them both work together? Thank you so much
Can the Park Assist feature be "hacked" by installation of the OEM Button like the A Trac? I used your A Trac Switch Hack, saw the video Wed, ordered the switch, got it today, 1 minute to install and test.
Awesome video! Question: I have a 2007 FJ 2WD. I have a dummy switch where the ATrac button would be in a 4WD. I popped it out to replace it with a light bar switch. Turns out it’s actually wired even though it’s a dummy switch. I ended up finding the empty dummy switch. My question is what is the wiring for with the switch that was blank on my FJ but is normally where the A trac button would be?
Hello, I have a 2008 Toyota FJ, automatic 4x4, with ATrac System and Rear Block system, can the CRAWL CONTROL system be installed? Will this installation be very difficult? I would have to get the panel that goes on the roof and then try to connect that system that I understand is associated with ABS. Thank you and I await your comments. Congratulations for the channel.
Hello! My 09 does not have the bottom right switch, is this where the roof rack light switch would be (if I had them)? I have all the other switches (parking, subwoofer, rld, squiggly line FJ button, 400w, bumper lights, a-trac), but have been losing my mind trying to figure out that bottom right!
I don’t have the VSC OFF switch but I do have the light on my dash lit up like a Christmas tree along with what feels like every other light: all happening after a new clutch put in. I can use a computer to reset/turn off the lights but give me 2min up to 30 min MAX drive time & guess who’s back: ALL THE LIGHTS AGAIN! HELP PLEASE!!! I have an 08 model. 6spd straight shift (manual) 4x4 w/ 4wd. Manufactured 07/07. Looks like maybe a toggle switch used to be in place but just the empty switch port is in place now. Accompanied by RR-Diff and A-Trac buttons and the parking sensor button too. Honestly I’m not sure exactly what base model it is or if it’s TRD as silly as may sound. Love my FJ though and love doing own work- SUPER Appreciate your channel and this forum THANK YOU!! I really hope someone sees this and can give me some insight! Thank you in advance!!
I would recommend finding a group on Facebook or joining the FJCruiserForums and sharing your situation there, there will be a larger number of people who will see it and can chime in then here on the comments section of a RUclips video.
Hey i have 2007 4x4 fj and i dont have any button except the back up sensors. In my reserach every fj comes with the atrac button. I dont have a rear diff lock but still on the forums they say that it comes with it. Any advice. Thank u
Wow! I have had my FJ Cruiser since it had 6K miles on it (164K now)-- like 15-16 years? I found the purpose of two buttons I didn't know about. (parking and security) Cool and Thanks! However, how do I decode the date built from the stickers in the door?
Glad I could help! So the door jamb sticker will have a date printed in the top right corner, it will look like this, 12/07, which would mean December of 2007. So just look for that for your build date.
I would check out the FJCruiserForums and you can figure out how to do that. I did it to my first FJ Cruiser but it has been a while so I cannot remember exactly how I did it.
@@FJX2000_Productions Thanks. Great content on your channel. I have a 2008 FJ that I got on Memorial Day. I love it. Stock with almost all upgraded packages that the 2wd can have. Keep up the great work. All the best.
There is a DRL plug behind your driver side fascia (assuming LHD). If you unplug that, setting your headlight switch to off should completely kill all lights. Wanderlost Overland shows the exact location in their projector LED headlight video.
@@tmaxx2912 That was the first thing I did to my FJ....that and new mirror lights. I just drive with the stick in 1st position all the time so my mirrors are on but main lights off.
Where can I get / find different switches "zombie symbol" for instance that has the correct wiring plug in it. Not just 3 skinning wires from Amazon /China. Thank-you and excellent video on the switches. Appreciate it
Hi question, my FJ 2014 , didn’t come with back parking sensor switch, I would like to purchase one. Finding parts for F J are difficult. Help! Thank you
Just bought a used 07 FJ. Something is draining the battery over night. Not sure what it is and it only kills the battery on cold nights. Thinking I have an after market stero. But not sure why it would be draining.
Hi, would you mind helping .Where would I find engine running active only. like ignition sensing wire for DC to DC charger. Has to only be active when the engine is actually running. Much appreciated if you can.
If you check the fuse box below and to the left of the steering wheel, there are some fuse locations that are wired in there already to only work with the FJ turned on, so I would look into figuring out which ones that applies to. There are some threads with labeled images on the forums but using a special tool that light up when power is present will also work
Nothing shows up on the dash when I press my RSCA button. I verified the dash light isn't burnt out, it lights up when turning the ignition on. Any suggestions? This is a 2010.
I'm trying to sort out if the a-trac/diff locker hack has already been done my '07 FJ built in 08/06. As far as I can tell, from offroading my rig, a-trac and the diff locker work in tandem. The back of the a-trac button has a spliced wire but I can't follow it's path behind the dash, nor do I know what to look for. Do you know of a good tutorial on how to perform the hack? I didn't see anything on youtube. I'm the 2nd owner.
I actually don’t know! I’ve never looked to much into it. I think most people who want to add an outlet go with something aftermarket that is superior to the OEM option anyways. But yeah adding the OEM switch and plug…. I’m not sure. They are difficult parts to find so not many folks do it.
Is there a possibility to install a pain sensor switch…I mean, is there a sensor it will activate if you don’t have that in the bumper? Can it be added? A friend upgraded his bumper and gave me the sensor and wiring

Can i add power outlet button? Can i add the plug and button easly?
I actually don’t know! I’ve never looked to much into it. I think most people who want to add an outlet go with something aftermarket that is superior to the OEM option anyways. But yeah adding the OEM switch and plug…. I’m not sure. They are difficult parts to find so not many folks do it.
where did you get your roof rack?
The Toyota security microphone does not work If you have tint film in your windows , learned it the hard way .🤷🏻♂️😞
Thanks
Is there a possibility to install a pain sensor switch…I mean, is there a sensor it will activate if you don’t have that in the bumper? Can it be added? A friend upgraded his bumper and gave me the sensor and wiring
A pain sensor?
That should say: parking sensor...not pain sensor
So, where can I find the Subwoofer switch on the newest models?? How can I activate it??
In 2011+ models there is no subwoofer switch as they switched to the JBL sound system. So all subwoofer control is in the head unit itself
Never knew I had a reverse parking sensors. Neither did the previous owner. Crazy
Glad this helped!
