  • Odometer Switch

    Tested and works for
    Hilux Surf KZN130 & LandCruiser 80 Series
    (Have exactly the same Speedo/odo)

    After searching around trying to find a method to put a switch on the odometer but having little luck here is a write up how I did it.

    Remove the instrument cluster then remove the speedo gauge. Flip upside down and locate the 6 pins for the stepper motor that controls the odometer/trip counter.

    Break the electrical path between the middle set of pins and the resistor. Can be cut with a sharp craft knife.

    Next solder 2 wires one to the resistor and the other to the middle 2 pins. I wired this to the suspension switch on the dash as I have upgraded to aftermarket shocks and no longer needed.

    With a dap of silicone to hold the wires in place on the circuit board the gauge can be reinstated and cluster/dash put back together .

    Well done. What year/model was it? I have a 98 Toyota Regius 1KZ that I am looking at options for.

      If the speedo has this arm stopper it means it's electric and can be modified. If it doesn't it's cable driven and can't.
