ORS-EL001 E-LOCKER HARNESS NSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

NOTICE TO CUSTOMER: If there is a problem suspected with the wiring harness, call Off Road Solutions. DO NOT cut, alter, or dissect the ORS conversion harness. Off Road Solutions accepts no responsibility for a harness that has been tampered with – NO EXCEPTIONS.

  • The locker switch is the proper size to fit the typical Toyota "cutout" panel found in the dashboard near the steering column. The switch lead is designed to mount near the steering wheel or center console area.
  • The relays are designed to be mounted under the dash in the driver side or near the driver side kick panel.
  • The lead labeled "to ignition "on" source" should be spliced to a power source that is 12V only when the key is in the "on" position. This will only allow the locker to function when the ignition is on. If full time operation is desired, this should be connected to a constant 12V power source, such as the battery positive terminal.
  • From the relays and switch, the harness should be routed under the dash to the passenger side, then out the passenger side hole in the firewall. If a hole does not exist, drill a hole large enough to clear the e-locker connector. Be sure to install a grommet around the harness as it passes out the firewall to prevent wire damage.
  • Route the battery lead to the battery and connect the eyelet to the positive terminal.
  • Route the locker lead down the firewall along the brake lines.
  • In front locker applications, route the locker lead forward along the frame and then drop down above the axle to the locker. On coilover systems, it is advised to run this lead down the upper control arm.
  • In rear locker applications, route the locker lead rearward along the frame to the rear suspension. Route the lead down the brake hose to the rear axle.
  • Be sure all wiring is secure by way of zip ties, routing clamps, etc. Be sure the wiring harness does not touch and sharp edges and is clear of any heat or moving parts.

NOTE: In some rare applications the Toyota limit switch in the actuator is oriented in the opposite direction. In this case your locker would be on w/ the switch (and light) "off", and the locker would be off when the switch was "on".

To correct this condition, first disconnect the negative battery terminal. Remove the relay labeled "3" from its connector. Swap the positions of the red and yellow wires in this #3 connector. Using a long pick and a flashlight unlock the terminal from the connector, this is done from the relay side of the connector. Before re-installing the wires, be sure the lock tab on the terminal is still bent out. Push the wires into their new positions until a "click" is heard. Make sure the terminal is locked into place and re-install the relay. Connect the negative battery terminal.
