Expert Answers about Toyota Sienna


  • Installing and Removing a Hollywood Over-The-Top Bike Carrier on a 2012 Toyota Sienna
  • The Hollywood Over-the-Top bike carrier # HRF2 could probably handle the weight just fine but installation of anything but bikes could cause damage to your vehicle and most likely void the warranty. A option I would consider is the Rightline cargo hatch saddlebag # RL100B90 because it's aerodynamic and rests on the backside of your 2012 Toyota Sienna. The carrying capacity is 13 cubic feet and weight capacity is 100 pounds. I think you will really like this option because of the easy loading...

  • How to Install Rampage Minivan Center Console # RA39923 So It Remains Securely in Position
  • The Rampage Minivan Center Console # RA39923 that you referenced does not include the hardware you will use to mount it. This is because this is general-application product that fits more than one vehicle and your preferred installation position may require different hardware than if it was installed in a different position in a different vehicle. You can use hardware that you source locally; choose screws long enough to reach into the material under the carpet but not so long that they...

  • Can the Power Wire on Trailer Wiring Harness # 118498 be Routed Inside of a 2011 Toyota Sienna
  • There are a couple of options for routing the power wire for Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, # 118498. Since you want to keep it out of the elements, you can either route the wire through the frame or route it through the cab of the vehicle. If you want to route it through the frame, you will need a long and rigid piece of wire, push it through the inside of the frame from the front of the vehicle to the back, tie the power wire to the end, then pull the rigid wire back through. This...

  • What is the Best Way to Find the Stop Light Wire for a Brake Controller on a 2011 Toyota Sienna
  • Using a multimeter can be tricky sometimes, which is why we recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993. This tester has a light in it and lights up when voltage is detected. I cannot verify the specific color for the brake switch wire you need. Wiring colors change frequently, and I would not want to give you false information. Testing the wires with a circuit tester is the only sure way to know. When you do test the wires, make sure you find the one that shows a signal only when...

  • I added a picture of the drawing from the instructions. If you click on it it will enlarge the picture so that you can better see where the measurements need to be taken. An installation video of the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13105 being installed on a 2015 Toyota Sienna has also been linked for you to check out. This process will be identical to your installation.

  • Difficulty of Trailer Hitch Installation on 2015 Toyota Sienna
  • It's not a dumb question, no worries. Our install difficulty ratings are based on a scale of 1 through 10 with 1 being a very simple install that just about everyone could handle with no difficulty and 10 being very difficult, something probably best left to a professional for most folks. Take hitches for the 2015 Toyota Sienna for example. The Curt # C13105 is of slightly lower than average difficulty. If you're comfortable using hand tools, you can most likely handle it. The Draw-Tite...

  • 4-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Bracket Recommendation for a 200 Toyota Sienna
  • The 4 pole trailer connector will be able to be mounted under the Toyota Sienna by the hitch. From the way the instructions seem to explain it, the 4-Way will be on the outside underneath the vehicle and not hanging through the rear cargo doors. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. For a bracket, you can use a combination of # 18144 and # 18140. If you determine that the 4-Way would have to be pulled through the rear hatch, you can follow these alternative...

  • Will Installing The Curt Hitch C22UR Effect The Liftgate Sensor On My 2023 Toyota Sienna
  • The liftgate sensor on your 2023 Toyota Sienna will not be disabled after installing the Curt hitch # C22UR. The sensor will still work, but the receiver does partially block the sensor. So it will still work but it may function a little differently. You will likely need to wave your foot on either side of the receiver, rather than right in the middle to get it to activate. It may take a little bit of getting used to at first, but functionality will not be lost.

  • Where to Install Transmission Cooler on a 2006 Toyota Sienna
  • I can help you with installing your transmission cooler, # D13503. On the majority of vehicles the ideal location to install your transmission cooler would be to mount the cooler in front of your vehicle's radiator (position A in the picture). At this location, the cooler will be able to work more efficiently than installed behind the A/C condenser or behind the radiator. However, sometimes there will be a clearance issue and the cooler will have to installed in the other locations mentioned....

  • How to Install Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness# C55418 on 2002 Toyota Sienna
  • We sure do! I've linked you to the installation instructions as well as to an install video. In a nutshell, you'll remove the rear threshold and pull back the trim panels on either side of the cargo area so you can access the back side of the taillight assemblies. You'll unplug the vehicle wiring harness from the taillight assembly, plugging the half of the harness with the YELLOW wire inline between the taillight assembly and the vehicle wiring harness on the driver's side. Route the...

  • What To Do If Your Exhaust Is Rattling Against Your Hitch Receiver
  • As every exhaust install will be different from vehicle to vehicle, in some cases there are clearance issue between the hitch and exhaust system. However, these are generally very simple fixes. The rubber part you are referring to is the isolator which attaches the bracket from the frame to the metal hanger welded on the exhaust. In order to gain clearance between the exhaust and hitch receiver you will need to start by removing the rubber isolator. You can do this by applying lubricate...

  • Adapting 4-Pole Flat on Toyota Sienna to 5-Pole Flat Using Part # 20036
  • To provide the converter you already have with a 5-pole connector, you have two choices. You can use and adapter, like part # 20036. The blue wire on the adapter would tap into the circuit that feeds the reverse lights on your Sienna. A more permanent solution is available. You can cut off the 4-pole connector on the vehicle, and wire in a 5-way flat vehicle end, part # HM37908. The brown, white, yellow and green wires would match those used by your existing connector. As with the adapter...

  • How is Trailer Wiring Connector Used with Trailer if it is Stored in Rear Hatch
  • A trailer wiring harness like # 118304 for a 2008 Toyota Sienna is generally stored in the rear cargo area and then draped through the seam of the rear hatch, like you said, when in use. The hatch seal is padded enough to protect and not damage the wiring. It's generally considered to be safer for the wiring to store it in the rear hatch because it isn't exposed to the elements when not in use.

  • To install the AirLift 1000 Rear Helper Springs, part # AL60732, in your 2004 Toyota Sienna you will need to either jack up the rear of the vehicle or raise it on a hoist and support the vehicle frame with safety stands. This is necessary to allow the rear suspension to fully extend for insertion of the helper springs. It is not necessary to dismantle the suspension system. Apart from this you will need only basic tools. Installation consists of slipping the deflated air spring cylinder...

  • Installing WeatherTech 2nd and 3rd Row Floor Liner on 2016 Toyota Sienna with Sliding Console
  • It sounds like your 2016 Toyota Sienna has the optional first row sliding console. If that is the case then floor mat # WT463004 will need to be trimmed. Trim lines are marked on the mat. If your van has the loose mats separate from the permanent carpet/flooring then yes those would have to be removed to install the WeatherTech mat. But I don't think that is what you are talking about. It sounds like you just need to trim the mat where indicated on the mat. This isn't explicitly stated...
