Hi Sarah...

Which switches are we talking of( the Toyota cab/dash switches or the "camper' conversion switches)?..and by "touch control", do you just mean, individual, modern switches? ..or have you got a specific "touch control panel" in mind, that you want to fit? ..

Personally, if the existing set-up works,but just looks a bit "dated", I think ,where possible I'd be just looking at "replicating" what is there, only with more modern switches? ...

Although if you do want to get really stuck into it in a big way(and don't want to enlist an auto electrician), it may be worth asking on some of the Hiace forums(as mentioned in your other thread)to see if they could point you to some wiring diagrams?....

HI,

Wonder if you still have your hiace? I wanted to know if you know how to reset the switches? The red light above one of mine keeps coming on whenever I make a circuit, there is power but at a reduced voltage.

Thanks for any help.

Regards.

I agree with Pepe. Replace the switches with more modern/stylish ones of the same type. No sense in giving yourself extra work by fitting complex and potentially less reliable switches.

Hi, I posted a question regarding the original green switches above regarding a fault light. Can you offer any help.

Thank you.
