    Thanks MacroP !! I did read your earlier post #68 in this thread but thought it was for the updated Prado for some reason. I have had another look and wired mine that way now. Seems to work as it as it should, BUT now when I open the drivers door after unlocking with the fob, the car beeps 10 times and the indicators flash. Anyone else come across that?

        I'm think I have it connected correctly now -see pic - Click image for larger version

ID:	654200 - Let me know if anyone thinks I have something wrong here please. I think I must have impacted on something while I was testing wires and installing etc. This morning I uninstalled the module and I still have the same problem. On opening the door after unlocking, the prado beeps 10 times and the indicators flash multiple times during the beeps. On doing further testing it's actually just touching the drivers door handle that makes the beeps happen. I dont even have to open the door. Any ideas?
        At one stage I did have the grey unlock signal wire connected to the blue wire on the grey connector. That's the blue wire directly below the green indicator wire. It was after that, that I had the 10 beep problem. Any idea what that wire is?

          That is weird.

          I've had a look at my diagram, that blue wire (pin 14) on the Grey plug (JG1) is actually a power circuit for the CAN window controller in the driver's door. Do your windows still work, better still, can you control the other windows from the driver's door?.

          Pics attached.

          Check your fuse "10A Door". You certainly could have blown this. Check the 25A next door too. Ironically that 25a fuse is the red wire where you stole power from for the module.

          Hope that helps,

            Thanks again MacroP. I checked the fuses today, they are OK. All the windows work etc. I also tried disconnecting the battery for a while but the fault remains. I have been through the manual and there doesn't seem to be any clues in there. I might have to get someone to plug in and see if there are any codes that can tell me what's going on.

              Disconnect the mirror folding module and than check what prado doing. May be faulty module.

                Thanks Skprado, I tried that and I still have the problem even with the module not installed.

                I have done some more testing and can define the problem better now. The 10 Beeps occur whenever the touch sensor on the back of either of the front door handles is touched after unlocking the car and before a front door is opened. If I open either of the front doors without touching the sensors there is no problem. The interesting thing is too that the unlock button on the back door acts the same as the sensors on the back of the front door handles.

                I have ordered Techstream and a cable of ebay. So I guess I'll wait for that to arrive and see if that tells me anything.

                  Bugger what a pain. Techstream is a must have app tool I reckon for any Prado owner even before any fault arises so no loss there. If you can, find the Prado service manual DVD off eBay too. Another great tool (that's cheap as chips) and that's where I get all those wiring diagrams that I've posted recently. The manual explains in detail all the possible codes that Techstream displays and how to diagnose, calibrate and repair.

                    I was going to ask about where you got those diagrams. I've just gone and bought one of the manuals now. It should arrive before the techstream package. Thanks for the tip!

                    • I am gonna order one, but the instruction mentions working up to Prado 2015, does anyone know if it supports Prado 2016 GXL 2.8TD AUTO?

                      • Hi mates, I need some help here!
                        I just order one module for my 2016 Prado GXL, and the seller has asked me to show them the mirror folding socket, but I have never done it before. Can someone here show me how to dismantle and photo which parts of socket?
                        Thanks in advance!
                        cheers, DP

                          Pop the mirror switch out using a blunt knife. No need to need to remove the entire plastic that also contains the start switch. Remove the plug from the mirror switch at the back. The seller needs to see the pic of the plug taken from the end.

                              • I'm wondering if anyone can help me? My mother and father in law have just bought a prado from down here in Brisbane, they have drove it back up to mackay and noticed that the passenger side mirror over travels all the way when starting the car (from being folded in)

                                Can someone explain to me a simple way to isolate the mirrors from folding automatically so I can pass on the information to them to do. Every time they start the car they have to get out and fold the mirror back which is a massive pain! Once they are down here for Christmas I will be able to look at fixing the issue properly for them.

                                Thank you
