4Runner Switch Panel Plug And Play Kit | 2010-2023 | Yota X

[@danarussell4246]

Corey always knocks it out of the park with his “how to” videos. I’m not an off-road 4Runner guy but watching Corey’s videos actually makes me want to do more to my 4Runner.

[@yotaxpedition]

We're here to help!

[@iamoutofideas13]

I think this is the best value switch panel in the industry. I installed mine about 5 months ago and it works flawlessly.

[@sduquett]

Just installed it yesterday. Pretty easy and looks so clean. My dad came over to look and he also loved the look. The only thing I did different was when you push the two wires through the fire wall push the wire for the fuse through first and then the controller wire. Doing it the opposite way makes it almost impossible because the fuse wire is flexible and keeps getting hung up on the controller wire

[@membershipmovement]

Wow! This is going to be one of the first things I get when I get my first 4runner. I think I could do this install. Great video!

Thank you for being specific about using the inside fuse panel….was about to lose my mind until I found this video. I did use the acc fuse (7.5) just so I could have access on ACC not just on ignition.

Nope. Other than contorting to get it installed. It has been fine

[@SavardRn]

this may be a stupid question, but how do you determine which accessories (winch or lightbar) go to which amp fuse?

[@yotaxpedition]

Look on the manufactures website and they should give the info you need. Look for how many amps your accessory uses.

[@toshelbygt]

In theory could you use this to wire up the aftermarket drl's from morimoto so you dont have to tap the injector fuse?

After this video came out we took away the option of having it pre-assembled. We don't have a lot of hands here in the shop and have to focus on other things.

Just got my kit and there are three extra brackets in the box that were not covered in the video. What are they for?

[@yotaxpedition]

They are universal brackets if you're not using our 4runner specific bracket.

The 4runner bracket should work on the FJ as well.

Would you recommend soldering that connection to the fuse box from the firewall or are those crimp connectors pretty durable?

Hey I have a quick question for you. I have the exact same lights and my passenger side low beams went out. They aren’t burn out because when I turn on my high beams the low beams also come back on. Only having this issue on passenger side and it started 6-8 months after installing the lights. Any ideas?

Does this kit accommodate space to mount an ARB Twin on the driver side as well?

[@paulj8740]

I am only wanting to mount the ARB single, but I would also like to see a video or a new mounting bracket offered on the website that allocates space for the compressor.

Am I right to assume that you can no longer put the inside cab fuse panel cover back on?

You would be correct

[@drewman5740]

Awesome Job on the install vid and product design! … Excited on purchasing the kit for my 4Runnner. I do have one question that you don’t cover during the installation; What about “Relays” that typically come with lights, etc ? … Sorry if you already answered.

[@yotaxpedition]

All your relays are built into the system. No need for external relays in your wiring harness.

[@drewman5740]

@@yotaxpedition… That’s great news and Thanks for sharing!

[@ShoestringMartha]

I just received my kit and plan on installing it this weekend. My question is this: does the on/off button on the switch panel entirely turn off power to the panel and connected accessories or does it only turn off the backlight? I would like one of the switches to control camp lights installed in the roof rack handles. I want to be able to use these with the ignition off. So my plan is to connect to an always-on fuse, at minimum, an ACC fuse, but I want to be sure that I can switch everything off. Thank you!

[@yotaxpedition]

The On/Off button turns the unit on and off. So if you have for example 4 switches turned on and you hit the main on/off button, all 4 with shut off. Hit the button again and all 4 will turn back on. If you want the unit to always have power then you can hook up the single small red wire to either your battery or a fuse that has constant 12v.

[@av8ferg237]

Beautiful creation guys. One question because I’ve been waiting for Runnin4tacos to release their Auxbeam dash flush Mount panel. You’re system look similar almost identical to the Auxbeam 8 gang system (not sure if it was a rebranding, which it totally fine, your fuse cover is way nicer). Is the controller you have the same size so that it will fit the dash Mount R4T is making. Does your system have the Bluetooth capability as well? Thanks and nice job…..

[@1truess]

Any updates on this question, as I have the same questions?

[@christopherpeppers278]

Looks like an AuxBeam 8 button to me as well. I’m pretty sure in the original video they use an actual branded AuxBeam 8 button.

[@devildog1168]

Will the AR-820 auxbeam fit on this mount??

[@rigomoreno3149]

Can i use acc 7.5 fuse slot?

[@AppleiOSGenius]

[@TrashxXxpanda]

This video says 2010-2023 but the website says 2014+ … I’m assuming it’ll fit my 2012?

[@laine-e4r]

This may be a silly question, but I want to run power to this from my aux battery for the accessories I am going to be using with this plug and play do you think I will be ok doing it that way?

[@michaelfoley1296]

How did you put the fuse box cover back on after you plugged in the fuse in?

[@yotaxpedition]

The fuse box on the dash? The lid no longer fits when you put an add a fuse in there

[@ttss5726]

Of all the things the more important part he failed at. That fuse tap you did not install it correctly there is actually a proper way to install it. One side being source side and one side being device side. Yes they actually have a correct way to be installed

[@thepatternforms859]

Can this be word to the jump posts under the hood instead of the battery? My battery is inside under the driver seat but I have the jump posts under the hood along with the chassis ground

[@yotaxpedition]

Yes that will work

[@GhawnR.]

Can the different amp fuses be swapped with different amp fuses in order to accommodate the order in which u want ur accessories organized on the switch panel? Or do they have to be randomly scattered on the switch panel due to the different amps each fuse is? Thanks

[@Mortiz350]

What tires are on that 4Runner? 😮

[@matthewdski]

Does this have a backlight for the buttons when none of the switches are activated? I just installed mine and love it except for the fact that I can't see it in the dark to know which button to press.

[@yotaxpedition]

Hey Matt, Unfortunately this unit does not have a backlight when none of the buttons are activated. We are currently working on a completely new version that has new features that we hope to release before then end of the year.

[@matthewdski]

@@yotaxpedition ​ That would be awesome. It seems a bit unintuitive to have a panel used to control lights (I'm assuming this is the most common use case) without a backlight since you typically turn on lights in the dark. Another potentially useful feature would be having the ability to long-press a button and have that turn on/off a group of lights. For instance if I long-press the bottom left button all the buttons could flash, i can press each button I want to assign to that group and they would light up steady. When I'm finished I long-press the bottom left again to set that group. After its set when I long-press that button all of the buttons I assigned to that group would activate. If I continued to press for a few extra seconds it would take me back into group assignment mode for that button. If you do create an updated version do you plan on selling an "upgrade kit" for existing panel owners? The existing mount is awesome and the panel is great as well. Being able to buy and swap just the circuit control box would be outstanding and very consumer friendly. If you were able to incorporate a way to flash new firmware (if you're using a chip in there) to get new features or change the config myself then re-compile and flash again would be the best thing ever.

[@yotaxpedition]

Hey Matt, the new unit is a completely different layout so both the unit and the bracket will need to be swapped out. I know, a pain. When the new one is released, shoot us an email with your order number for the old unit and we will help you out.

[@matthewdski]

@@yotaxpedition Gotcha, makes sense. I trust it will be worth the effort to swap out. Also, thank you for making the buttons so clicky and satisfying.

Can I use the ARB CKMA12 air compressor with this?? It says on ARB's website that it has a maximum load of 32A and you guys only have up to 30A fuses on this. Any info is appreciated, thanks!

[@yotaxpedition]

Yes you can! We've done this already with the single and dual compressor from ARB. On the harness, there is a purple wire. This is the wire to activate the compressor on/off. Run this wire to your switch panel.

[@ajcostanza5486]

@@yotaxpedition The dual compressor will be fine plugged into the 30A fuse??

[@yotaxpedition]

You're not powering the compressor from the switch panel. The compressor positive and negative goes to the battery. The wire you run to the switch panel is to turn the compressor on and off.

It depends on the size. I would look at the manufacturer's specs and see how many amps the lights use and go from there

@@yotaxpedition thank you brother, one more question, are you aware of any after market own style dash panels that fit this switch?

[@rupturemetal5471]

I would like to connect using the engine bay fuse box. Which fuse do you recommend tapping into? 2023 4Runner.

[@yotaxpedition]

If you want wont the switch panel to work only when the key is on then you want to find a 10amp fuse that only has power when the key is on. Some fuse locations wont allow the fuse tap to work because you will not be able to install the fuse box lid. This is why we ran the wire to the interior fuse box.

[@DavidMcGinnis-or5cc]

Caution. I used an add a fuse for some raptor lights and used the same IGN slot in the fuse block. Afterwards I was getting the check engine light and random codes. Removed the add a fuse for diagnostic. Dealer spent hours trying to diagnose it. Determined add a fuse had spread the prongs in the block only slightly but enough to trip codes. Toyota is very voltage sensitive and the did not like the additional circuit. Had to put a larger fuse in the IGN slot and remove the lights. I will not use add a fuse again.

2018 TRD Pro here. Same. Cabin fuse box is far more limited and uses compact fuses so you can’t plug-and-play into the harness. Once I plugged it into the ACC fuse location (7.5 amp), my entire head unit doesn’t function. Bought a full size 7.5 amp fuse to try but that’s something that isn’t mentioned and doesn’t seem to be an issue on the newer 4Runners.
