cressida plus clutch

[cue340]

Hi all, i have recently fitted a W58 to my MX83 cressida. All is fine with the swap, but I am getting the OD on/off light on the dash constantly flashing at me. Does anyone out there know how to stop this, a resistor perhaps?

Also my cruise isnt working (dunno if it was before the swap), is this tied into the auto?

cheers

Disconnect the O/D light LOL.

With your cruise, make sure the cruise control ecu doesn't think your in Neutral.

[CrUZida]

If the Cressida runs a separate ECT ECU then unplugging that will stop the O/D light from flashing. (the MX73 and the MA70 do, just not sure about the MX83).
Failing that, removing the globe is the only way to get it to stop flashing.

With the cruise, disconnect the THICK B-W wire going into the cruise box. It will fix it (assuming it was working beforehand)

Is it possible to use cruise with a manual?

[RA35GT]

yes.

Should have a clutch switch wired into the neutral terminal on the cruise ecu though.

I was going to wire one up on the Supra Rudi, I just couldn't be bothered in the end
Plus, if you change gears quick enough the cruise doesn't care.

ECT is in the Engine ECU in MX83. I'd just remove the globe.

Sorry if that came across as a dig, it wasn't one. (PS I haven't wired it in yet either LOL...one day haha)

I still granny shift and don't double declutch like im supposed to ROFLMAO.

awesome thanks everyone, ill have a go on the weekend and sort it out

on a side note the ''r'' on my dash lights up when you select reverse (r154) the guy i bought it off did it, thought it was a neat touch

[CrUZida]

The 'R' is connected to the reverse lights, so if the reverse lights are hooked up (as they should be), the R works.

[cue340]

thats cool!
can anyone tell me which plug that goes to the auto is the reverse lights plug?

[CrUZida]

The one that goes to where the shifter connects to.

PRND21 and the NSW are all on the same plug.
