Pedal Commander for Toyota Highlander (2014-2019) - Throttle Response Controller
Say goodbye to throttle delay in your Toyota Highlander. Forever.
Have you ever noticed that older vehicles were more responsive and quicker to take off? That’s because older vehicles were operated on mechanical throttle cables, which means everything happened instantaneously. Today’s newer vehicles lack the responsiveness that came with older throttle cables because they are now controlled by the vehicle’s computer. It doesn’t matter how fast you push your gas pedal to the floor, you don’t have access to all the power your vehicle has to offer. We are your solution!
Pedal Commander is an advanced throttle controller that allows your engine to respond faster and gives you the acceleration you want when you want it! By amplifying the signal being sent from the sensor on your gas pedal to the vehicle's ECU (computer), our throttle response controller removes response delays on any vehicle with an electronic gas pedal.
Pedal Commander is one of the demanded Toyota Highlander accessories on the market. Live Life Full Throttle and fall in love with your Toyota Highlander all over again!
Why Do You Need the Pedal Commander on your Highlander?
The Pedal Commander will give you the instantaneous throttle response that is missing in modern vehicles.
With the Pedal Commander, you can finally experience 100% of what your vehicle has to offer. Take your vehicle’s performance back into your hands and drive the way YOU want.

Pedal Commander is completely compatible with any other aftermarket parts you may already have. And since we don’t use the OBDII port, this means it’s a perfect match to compliment your existing tune or programmer to fully customize your Toyota Highlander driving experience.

INSTALLATION
1. Turn off Ignition.
2. Keep your key fob (if applicable) at least 35 ft. (10m) away from your Highlander. This prevents your car from using power to transmit signals to your proximity key fob sensor.
3. Leave your driver’s door open for 15 minutes to allow your ECU to shut down completely.
4. Locate and disconnect your accelerator pedal assembly plug.
5. Plug in your Pedal Commander in line with your accelerator pedal assembly plug until you hear a “click.”
6. Make sure the cables are tucked in place so they do not interfere with your driving experience.
7. Place and mount the Pedal Commander to your desired location using the velcro and mounting bracket that's included in the box.
IMPORTANT
To avoid receiving check engine lights or other issues, it is important that you follow these instructions properly. Also, please ensure that you hear a “click” sound while connecting the plugs, as this signifies a secure connection.

Picked this up not quite knowing what to expect, but it's been installed into a 2016 Toyota Camry SE (FWD 2.5 Liter NA 4-cyl). I waited 10 minutes after vehicle shutdown to start the process. The installation was quick and a literal snap! Just unplug the harness from the top of the gas pedal, plug one harness from the commander into its place, then plug the harness from the pedal into the other harness of the commander, DONE. Now just route the cable up along the center console, making sure to be clear of the pedal arm. I was able to mount the command module itself just behind the gear shift, along the top of the center console. Used the included Velcro, no screws.I've tested all modes, and each definitely has its own personality.1. Eco... is sluggish at peak, but adjustable to taste.. Haven't tested it in the long run yet for fuel savings, but looks like it should indeed help you save! I've noted that it is easier to take off in the snow in ECO mode, at its LOWEST setting, -4. However, I do not recommend using Eco in heavy traffic or other situations that may require faster throttle response.2. City. This mode is actually fairly favorable. I haven't quite dialed in a number, YET .. But +1-3 seem nice and balanced. City mode is snappy, but not so bad that you wouldn't want to use it. It will definitely get you off the line quickly without the lag. In snow it can slip a bit, but also seems to dig in and go at other times.. Of course there are many variables to this (tires, street condition, ice, FWD/AWD/RWD, etc). I suggest finding an empty lot after some snow, test it out and find what suits you!3. Sport. Now this mode is very notable from the usual throttle response of the Camry. Very touchy, but once you get used to feathering the pedal off the line, you can then lay into it a split second later. Have noted that not feathering it can make the initial take off a bit jerky. Passing with this mode activated is fairly painless.As a side note, I've an AEM CA intake and performance muffler installed (mellow tone, non-rice) and this module has actually changed the way all of that sounds. It hasn't done so in a bad way, just a bit more aggressive in tone.. Not bad at all.. Now for rain or snow, I do not recommend unless you have some good tires (of course other variables apply). I myself will be installing new/better tires shortly so I may be able to update this review later, but snow and sport mode don't mix well. In sport I was able to quickly spin the tires during a 25-30+ Mph roll. Laying off of it of course brings you back to normal, but it can get dicey.4. Sport + ... Read above, and times it double.In conclusion, this module wasn't a bad investment (opinions will vary). I did not experience any check engine lights or other codes..yet. I will update this review if something arises. Suppose the price could be a bit friendlier.. it is what it is, but it works. So if you're wanting something a little different from your car, more response, then look into getting one.. Afterwards, you can just decide from there! Just know this is for 'Drive by Wire' vehicles, meaning they do not have a physical throttle cable running to the throttle body; it's all electronically controlled!

The device installed on Toyota Highlander 2018. It works as advertised, providing the driver with lots of options to find the optimal setting, which is easy to change. Surprisingly, the fuel consumption did not even increased, but DECREASED (measured on Sport +2 mode). In mixed cycle, before installation it was 20-21 mpg, after - 23-24 mpg. The consumption was confirmed by fueling log, not just dash computer. Highly recommended!

The unit does what it says it's going to do. I installed it on my 2019 Camry, and I still have a delay in the pedal. I've noticed that the transmission shifts really quick from a stop.I still like it.

I used the petal commander for 2 months or so and never had a problem. Worked as expected and loved the eco mode. I was driving around a little faster on city mode putting my gas all the way down on a hard turn and it caused me to get a check engine light and have to drive home with my car maxing out at 20 mph. Easy fix after clearing it through the ODB but returned it right after to be on the safe side. Fun toy while it lasted.

Noticeable difference with power on highway. Some noticeable change from dead stop. Was worth the money. Only used it a week so far so I'm sure I will like it even more as I experiment with it more.

I had a job once traveling the state and drove many different types of vehicles.I never drove a more sluggish dangerously slow car than a Corolla with a CVT. I absolutely hated the thing. Put a pedal commander on it and now I actually enjoy the car. I don'tknow in other cars but in a 2014 Corolla it is night and day difference. The only down side is the price, otherwise it is a great product.
