12V------------WHITE(IGN SWITCH) ACC1----------Blue(IGN SWITCH) STARTER1--BLACK/ WHITE(IGN SWITCH) STARTER2---BLACK(IGN SWITCH) IGN 1----------GRAY(IGN SWITCH) IGN2-----------GREEN(IGN SWITCH) TACH----------BLACK(AT ECM MODULE BEHIND RIGHT SIDE OF DASH NEXT TO GLOVEBOX AND FUSE BOX) PIN 5
KEY SENSE----GREEN(AT BODY ECU MODULE BEHIND RIGHT SIDE OF DASH NEXT TO GLOVEBOX)PIN 2***this one im sure you can find at key cylinder HOOD PIN------GREEN BLACK at hood pin switch, Im also pretty sure that this model would use the lock detection system so beware ******for bypass you could use the KEY OVERRIDE SL-2 which you would need to use the TX,RX, and keysense. Im almost sure that when you connect the keysense wire from the bypass to the car it will disarm your factory alarm so all you need is to use the lock detection system for the door locks(lock arms, unlock disarms)******** FOR REFERENCE the TX is GRAY, and the RX is PINK which can be found around key cylinder.

Well if it has the push start system then you can use the KEYOVERRIDE-SL2 and it should bypass the system and should work

the method i use for smart button toyotats is different from that as shown in the key overide2 install manual. the method i use requires only one relay to shut off the autolamp. i use an xpresskit xk05 for the transponder bypass

i work at a toyota dealer installing starters a few things the 08 are a complete redesign over the 07 no funky door locks straight negative in the kick over all it it fairly easy the park lights and brake are on the left of the fuse box similar to the camry the ignitions wires are straight forward but test them and i dont know why everyone does autoheadlights the hard way and relay the wire at the switch all you have do do is use the pulse aftershutdown or rearm wire and pulse the driver front door pin wire that will turn off any toyota auto headlight system the only pain is the door pins for the pass side of the car they are just like the camry back of the fuse box high in the kick panel and the driver side pins are in the running board harness ------------- "Computer games don't affect kids, I mean if Pac Man affected us as kids, we'd
