righto, I've just finished building the jaycar speedo thingy but I found out the hard way that the really awesome post by the dude that fitted it to a 2007 lux is slightly different forthe 2004 lux.
Does anyone know or have a copy of the correct colour coding for the instrument cluster wiring for a 2004 vzn167r hilux?
I have searched the net for days and hve run outof ideas!
please help!
Goldy.
Goldy, your model
VZN167R is the previous shape 3.4 V6 hilux, not current shape thats why its different. I fitted a marks Adaptors kit to my old 03 V6 which was the same model without a problem.
Heres a tip.
Find the speedo pickup connector under the vehicle. remove the plug and a little of the cable tape if needed and see what colours are there. if you know how to use a test light, find the one earth wire, the one power wire and the third will be the signal wire that your looking for.
Then trace it back up to behind the cluster and connect the speedo box's wiring to it.
Hope that helps you and/or others.
