Climate button does not work while in Carplay. There are no a/c fan speed buttons, so the only way to adjust fan speed is to push ‘climate’ and use the screen controls- a major pet peeve. There is an off button that works in CarPlay. Would love an update/download to fix this. Received this week and installed last night. Took 2.5 hrs. Hardest part was removing vent-the clips that secure it are at the corners- best way to remove was to only use the trim tool on top and bottom. I used it in the side and it wrinkled the dash foamy material. The second hardest part was routing GVIF wires. I got good cuts so wear gloves if your hand will fit. The wires like to go right instead of down-Would use a hooked wire(like a bent hanger) to guide it down while feeding it. Besides the climate button, this is a great mod and the instructions were spot on. Thank you!
The climate buttons will work while showing the carplay screen. However, in order to go to the climate control screen to change the fan speed, you will need to go back to the factory toyota screen, then you can go to the climate control screen. Since the climate control buttons all work independently without a CAN signal out, it would be impossible to add a feature where the screen switches over to the climate control screen when the climate control button is pressed. Glad you’re enjoying the product!
Does this work for cars that are sold outside of the US? I’m from the Middle East and my car is a Land Cruiser VXR 2019, it looks exactly the same like the one in this video but i’m kinda confused because here they started having carplay added from the factory starting from the 2020 models
Does this system work only for this model? The 2024 LC wired model uses only half of the screen, and I’m wondering if it will work properly on that model.
Can you comment on how connectivity works with multiple drivers? I guess it will auto connect with the same user, but what needs to be done when switching between users? I guess you need to manually switch both CarPlay and Bluetooth?
If both two phones are in the car at the same time and you need to switch phones, disconnect the old phone by turning off Bluetooth and wifi, then turn on Bluetooth and wifi on the phone you want to switch to
Once the module is installed and you are inside CarPlay, what happens when you click the climate button on the head unit? Will the OEM climate screen appear? Do the rest of the factory buttons of the head unit keep their OEM functions while you are in CarPlay?
Same here. Installed today and climate button does not work when on CarPlay. You need to press home first, then climate. A fix would be great. Other than this I am a happy camper.

Unfortunately we currently do not offer a solution for the 2024 Land Cruiser.

@@davidsalazarc completely agree! It’s slightly annoying but tolerable.
Sorry for the confusion, you will need to go back to the native Toyota screen to see the climate control screen functions
