Re-Purpose Wireless charging power

[TheMrThumper]

Hello Tacoma family!

I do not use the wireless charged in my 2019 OFFROAD so I wanted to re-purpose the power from it.
Based on the diagrams http://www.ttguide.net/main_switch_signal_circuit-2137.html
The switch and the Charger are simultaneously getting power and the switch just sends an ON signal to the charger.

Theoretically to remove the power from this assembly entirely, I could trace where the power is breaking out to the charger and the switch and use that as my Hot and find somewhere to tie to ground. This way I would have accessory power available else where without a switch.

Looking forward to your input!

I have no idea how to do what you are doing but I am very interested in where this topic goes. The wireless charging is dumb. Would love to see that put to better use.

Yes! Do something phenomenal and then share it with us.

Hey OP you ever work on this? Like the rest I feel the Qi charger is worthless and would love to repurpose it’s power elsewhere.

You have my full support. Would be cool to be able to move power to the backOf the center console.

I did that with the plug inside the console. It's much more useful after being relocated

How did you go about doing it?
