Pete1122 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 My cruise control cable that is going through the firewall into the cab is cut, it looks like the cable itself has been discontinued by Toyota. Any suggestions on how I can get this fixed or find a replacement? The part number is 83731-35110, no one seems to carry it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I can't find any after market products either except for these cut to fit ones but have no idea if they will work http://www.dakotadigital.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=product/product_id=56/prd56.htm Think your best bet is a junk yard. 4 runners should also have the same cable Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyohome Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Pete, I just did a search with your part number and readily found it. Check out, www.toyota-parts.com. Their internet price is $46.39 and it lists for $60 and change. That cable fits a number of Toyotas. Let me know if you still have problems and I'll look further.

Derek up North Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 CABLE (83731-35110) "**** Discontinued Part ***** No Longer Available For Purchase" http://www.toyotaonlineparts.com/oem-part/oem-toyota/cable/83731-35110 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyohome Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 My source (toyota-parts.com) lists the part as available. But if not, try: Shelby and Sons, Inc. They are a salvage yard and they list a used servo and cable for a 91' 4 Runner for $35. (That PN also fits a 91' Toyota truck). Perhaps just the cable alone can be bought. Their number is; 1-800-248-7278. They are located in Frankfort, Il. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanAatTheCape Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I am guessing you have not had a functioning cruise control yet. The one on my 93 winnie warrior (V6) works but I have found it to be only marginally useful. That is because on anything but perfectly level land it works too good! Where as I would let it decelerate on a hill knowing I would get it back downhill, the CC pushes the gas - I am not willing to sacrifice the fuel mileage & I find the downshifts annoying. I can appreciate you wanting to make it work - just wanted to add my 2 cents - I would not spend a lot to get it working. Did I understand a previous owner cut the cable?

Pete1122 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 It does look like the cable was cut, I am doing some upgrades on my 1989 V6 Warrior that I hope will make the cruise control worth it. I just picked up a 4.56 Differential that will be swapped in next week. That plus a K&N intake and new 2.25 exhaust will hopefully let me cruise a little easier.

Pete1122 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 I am really struggling with my cruise control, I thought I identified which cable was cut but I'm more confused now than ever. The cable I need is the one that is attached to the gas pedal, it is attached next to the main throttle cable. The issue is I have no idea where the cut cable leads to. I have read all the diagrams and nothing helps. So to recap, where does the cruise control cable that is connected to the gas pedal go to?

WME Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 On mine it doesn't. The factory throttle cable goes to the gas pedal and to the butterfly. The "cruise control" cable should hook up at almost the same place and then goes to the cruise control servo. The servo can be vacuum powered or electric. Often its on the drivers side fender well.

Pete1122 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 Mine is a vacuum system however I cannot identify where the cable would attach to the servo. On one end of the servo there is a cable that goes to the butterfly, the other end just has wires going through the firewall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I mis spoke slightly, the throttle cable goes to a bellcrank that is connected to the butterfly by a short pushrod, the transmission downshift cable is actuly connect to the butterfly and runs down under the floorboard to the transmission. Is that the cable your are talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete1122 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 Some pictures might clear things up. 1. Red Cable goes down into the transmission 2. Green Cable is the main throttle cable that goes into the firewall and is connected to the gas pedal 3. Yellow cable is connected to the cruise control servo. The cable that is not pictured is also connected to the gas pedal but has been cut, I have no idea where this one goes. I imagine it also goes through the firewall and connects to....what?

WME Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Clueless. About the only crazy thing I can think of is cruise control. In the old days there was a mechanical cruise control that used to mechanically locked the throttle pedal, it had a switch that would release it when the brake was pushed. It did not vary the throttle on the engine but just locked the gas pedal. Maybe what you have left is from someone uninstalling the old system.

Pete1122 Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 I just ripped the whole thing out and installed a new electronic cruise control, install was simple and I'm thrilled! With my 4.56 gears I can cruise at 65mph with my cruise control all day long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
