Change Tundra Temperature Reading Back to Fahrenheit

eleven-05-2007, xi:25 AM

No update, I landscaped the entire yard this summer, and did not go a chance to pull the climate control unit of measurement out. The brandish is notwithstanding stuck in F. As it snowed on the weekend it won't be until next year that I can be without interior heat. Sorry I can't provide whatsoever details on the fix.

Hi all!

I have decided to join this forum considering I have a similar problem. My '03 4runner has decided to display kms and celsius all the sudden. I live in the US and I bougth the SUV here, and I did not do anything at all to create that change. I just took it to the dealer and they told me that they don't know what to do!!! I cannot believe it!!!

If anybody finds out the style to change it back to miles/Farenheit, please let me know...

Not sure if it's a fix, but maybe swap your climate control brandish with a Canadian fellow member. Plainly, theirs are set to display the temp in F and not C.

Hi, Mike. Prissy to know in that location's another Edmontonian on here. Go Oilers go!!

Did you ever manage to figure this out? I just bought a 2008 4runner (US Import), and figured in that location must be a way to modify the temperature readings from imperial to metric.

Eh at that place. No, never did. I was sure in that location was a way to do it besides, but none of us could ever find it. Equally far every bit I empathise at this time, it is the sensor hardware that determines what your display is, not a computer optoin or display setting.

Someone out there prove me wrong please

In that location must be some style to switch it, all the same nobody on this site or whatsoever other has ever figured out what it is. Besides, any dealerships you lot ask are simply dumbfounded at the question.

My display suddenly switched from F to C. I could not figure out how to become it dorsum then I simply dealt with information technology for over a year. About a calendar month agone I was doing some electrical work on my truck and had the battery asunder for nearly two days. When I hooked it back upwardly the display was back on F.

I of his car's greatest avails is that you tin convert the digital odometer/temperature readouts from miles to kilometers and fahrenheit to celsius at the touch on of a button. (The speedometer is also automatically adapted!) Nosotros exercise a lot of travelling in the U.South. and it really is quite helpful.

That would be 1 characteristic Toyota could add to the 4Runner that would be appreciated by all of united states of america who frequently drive back and along across the Canadian/U.South. edge!

that'due south worth null.....

My brandish suddenly switched from F to C. I could not figure out how to get it back then I just dealt with it for over a year. About a month agone I was doing some electrical work on my truck and had the bombardment disconnected for about two days. When I hooked it back upwards the brandish was back on F.

Hi -

I know this is 2010 (almost 2011!!) and I know this is very nearly a 4yr old thread but I thought that I would add to the confusion.

- 2008 Toyota 4Runner V8 Sport Model (Important to notation: Not Limited)
- 42,000 miles: Owned for 2yrs, 1mo (Out of warranty)
- Bought in Syracuse, NY

Just yesterday it randomly decided to switch to Metric from Imperial (F to C) on the AC Control (Driver Data Center) Brandish. Miles on the ODO are all the same in Imperial. Re-read the Owner's Manual 3 times today. Called dealership their response was to push the Grand/1000 push button. Uh...what?

Thanks for your posting. I will disconnect the battery tomorrow morn to see if in that location is any change.

v/r

-Ryan

Tried pushing nearly every combination of buttons. Called the dealership

My display suddenly switched from F to C. I could not figure out how to go it dorsum so I just dealt with it for over a year. Virtually a calendar month ago I was doing some electrical work on my truck and had the battery disconnected for virtually two days. When I hooked it back up the display was dorsum on F.

My thinking is that this must be a feature on the Limited Models.

Update for archival:

- Pulled battery final. DIC reset itself to English / Imperial.

Trouble: I noticed two things in the concluding 24hrs

1) Someone hit my truck in the right rear bumper
ii) I've lost functionality in the following systems: Rear Wiper, Rear Washer, Rear Defrost, Front Washer, Air Recirculation

I do not know if the beginning problem is related to the new bug or if the new problems are the result of the damage to the rear (unlikely) only information technology is extremely odd that all of these things are going wrong at the aforementioned time.

I've pulled some fuses - nothing looks out of the ordinary. Making an appointment with the dealership on Mon or Tuesday of side by side week.

This thread is depressing.

I cannot believe Toyota fabricated such a big mistake on such an piece of cake task.

I bought a US import into Canada, and I would love to modify from F into C but apparently no one knows how.

I concord with almost of y'all that this issue must take an easy fix. Here'southward what I am thinking, for what it's worth. And forgive me because I take recently purchased a 4runner originally from the US and I reside in Canada.

My conclusions (to date) are:
i.) The brandish from metric to imperial and vice versa must be done by toggling an input to the display control module. (I'grand not sure what the display/ estimator module name is, nor do i know if it has a dedicated computer or if it'south tied directly to the chief engine management computer. I've only tinkered with my 1996 bmw and older Hondas).
ii.) Since we do not have the F/C button or M/km push button on our T4R's we should be able to accept another toyota models (Sequoia or Tacoma?) electrical schematic diagram which has this/these buttons and trace it back to the module or computers input on that particular chip or connector pin. I am bold at that place must exist another Toyota model which would have the same module/computer as our 4Runner.
3.) In one case we establish what input needs to be electrically toggled we tin can install a temporary or permanent switch to toggle the display.

I was, at first, thinking there was a hardwired jumper on the circuit board of the module/calculator which would determine what units of measure the Display would signal, but after reading some posts on this site and other sites recall that there must be an input we can toggle since others accept posted that other vehicles take this oem switch. In addition, the dealer thinks that at that place must exist some switch.

commencement and foremost, had to testify off my t4r.. finally able to drive it after fixing the dinged upward front end!

so i'm not sure if this volition change the outside temperature or not, considering my outside temp button doesn't work (hence why i took the unit apart.) but it does change the inside temperature.

basically, they tapped into a white wire with a black line on it. if yous are looking at the unit of measurement with the harnesses plugged in, it is the left harness, tertiary wire from the bottom left.

**disclaimer** i have no idea if this is why my climate control unit has a few buttons that don't work, or if i merely have a bad unit. try this at your own risk.
