Hand or Parking Brake Light Staying On

If you are experiencing an issue where the parking or handbrake light stays on continuously on the dashboard, follow these steps to resolve it. This involves cutting or pulling out the pink wire from the included harness of the head unit.

1. Locate the Pink Wire

  • Identify the harness included with your VHEDIA head unit. The pink wire should be clearly visible within this harness.

2. Choose Your Method

Cut the Wire:

  • Using a wire cutter, carefully cut the pink wire. Ensure the cut is clean and there are no loose strands.

  • Secure the ends of the cut wire with electrical tape or a wire cap to prevent any short circuits or unintended connections.

Pull Out the Wire:

  • Firmly but gently pull the pink wire out of the harness. Ensure it is fully disconnected from the rest of the wiring.

3. Test the Fix

Start the car and check the dashboard to ensure the hand or parking brake light is now functioning correctly and does not stay on.

4. Install the Head Unit

Once everything is done and checked that all plugs have been put correctly, sit the head unit and the AC controls in place and piece everything back together.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue of the hand brake light staying on the dashboard.

Factory AM/FM Radio Quality Issue

This guide provides instructions for installing the Toyota Dual Radio Plug.

When you receive our kit, you'll find a dual radio plug adapter included. This component is designed to enhance radio reception in our head unit. While in the future, all our harnesses will come equipped with the dual one, if what you have in our cable harness is a single one, follow these instructions for optimal performance.

Installation Steps:

Verify Compatibility:

Before proceeding, ensure that the Toyota Dual Radio Plug is compatible with your vehicle's factory radio. If uncertain, check the factory radio plug or reach out to us for assistance.

Preparation:

  1. If you have the dual radio plug adapter separate from the harness, you'll need to integrate it to the radio plug on our harness for improved reception.

  2. Locate the blue wire from the radio plug of our harness.

  3. Cut the blue wire.

  4. Connect the blue wire from the dual one to the cut end of the old blue wire you just cut.
