Unknown Blue Connector

Hello Tacomaworld,

I am new to this forums and have a question. I recently installed a back up camera in my 2006 Tacoma and had to remove the lower dash from the driver side and noticed this blue connector that is not connected to anything. Does anyone know what this Blue connector is for and what does it do?

Any Info will be helpful. thanks.

 

not stock

edit: stock

 

might be for a trailer brake control

 

Just looks like a prewired connector that popped out the back of a switch blank to me. Do you have any switch blanks on the left side of the dash?

 

afaik toyota does not use that style connector, that thing is cheap and aftermarket, whatever it is

 

If you get to poking around, these trucks have MANY connectors that are not used. They use the same harness when built for different options, so there are a lot of unused connectors depending on options.

 

yes true but in this case

look at that connector. absolutely zero connectors provided by toyota are cheesy like
that, look chewed up, scuffed...etc....toyota uses perfect fit high quality connectors


not crap like that.


op you haz more pics ? any and all identifying marks or numbers on it ?

 

I'm not discounting that but it looks like the same shit in this guys post:

Albeit OPs is blue. I tore my dash down the other week, I remember green, black and a white connector up on the top stack. I'm pretty sure a blue one resides in the lower row of 3 but I could be mistaken.

 

Looks like a packard connector which toyota does use some of. But hey, I'm guessing "afaik" is some fancy abbreviation for you know all and everyone else is wrong? Just another TW thread that will turn into a troll fest of arguments. Maybe it looks chewed up because the Op keeps fucking with it? If everything works, don't screw with it.

 

ok then it might be stock, though chewed

add up all the possible stock buttons on a taco where that wire could reach

(rr diff lock, inverter, trac/vsc...etc)

subtract what feature you don't have. it is probably that connector. a feature you ain't got

 

Trac button ?

 

NOPE


I am more certain it is DAC downhill assist control.

blue = DAC

Yes there are 3 blanks on the left side just right of the mirror controls.

 

Yes that is correct. It's on the lower row.

 

But guys..... that is not a stock toyota connector..... -__-


OP like stated that came out of one of the switch blanks you have. No biggie.

 

Thank you everyone. That's what it is. I appreciate all your responses everyone. Aloha!

 

if I argue with myself long enough it becomes stock
