Wires, What Wires?????
:dunno: :dunno: :dunno:
I bought the 99 Limited 4Runner last fall. Clock didn't work so I said will look later. I have looked and there are no wires going to the clock. I have pulled the AC/Temp controls and Radio out but no wires. Is this normal for a 99 Limited??? Is the clock there just to fill a hole in the dash? It doesn't make sense to me. Anyone got any idea???? Sure is a puzzler to me!!! :dunno: :dunno: :dunno: |
Bumpity
Has anyone else had this problem? Since this 4Runner has the all digital controls and radio, could there be clock in the Radio? |
It's not normal for the wire to not be there. Have you checked behind the instrument cluster or surrounding areas? The wires aren't all THAT long, so I dont think they could go far. :D

Pos Switched + Ground Illumination/Dimmer? |
My 97 4Runner has 4 wires.
I have taken the center part of the dash apart and can find no plugs or wires just laying around doing nothing. I removed the radio and heater/AC controller and still no wires. It is strange though!!!!! |
I beleive it is in the gromet with the Emergency Flasher wires. Follow that down and you should find the plug for the clock.

Sorry it's been a few month since I tore into the center of the dashboard.
Constant + (clock memory.......simple fused +) Switched + (conrolls display illumination) Ground (self explanitory.......ground wherever you can) Dimmer (run to dimmer switch......just connect to dimmer) You shouldn't need to do any of the above because I bet the proper connector is there and is just not plugged in. |
These 2 pics should show you exactly what you need to find it:

Thanks for all the advice, but I still cannot find the wires. LOL
MTL, the pics look just like my 97. The 99 is just a little different. I am still looking and hope to find a dangling wire connector!!!!! :bang: :bang: |
