Genuine Toyota Stereo fitted on FJ - How to

[FJ-Lover Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close FJ-Lover]

Hi guys,

I need your help.

I think nowadays car makers are building cars with the idea of giving less possible distractions to the driver and one of the actions they have taken is to prevent the driver or in this case anyone else in the car to access the menu on the stereo and manage the songs while the iPod is linked to the stereo.

I can perfectly choose songs, albums, playlists, artists while traveling between 0 and 5 km/h but after that the stereo does not allow me to make any changes while playing the iPod.

This is why I now ask for your help: is there any way to overrun the system? I don't know if you are familiar with the stereo in question (I attach a picture here below) but I think its worth give it a try.

Is this a "problem" also the Prado is experiencing?

Thanks a lot!

Andrea

There is a way on the 120 series one, one button followed by pressing a series of "hidden" screen icons.

I would imagine there is a way, maybe google some american forums? One mob over there did a "lockpick" software update to disable the speed sensing stuff.
