    Okay, so I'll add that there is only one way to plug the harness into the relay. So if your guess is correct, then the harness is wired incorrectly from KC? I say that because it's essentially "plug and play" assuming I've plugged things into the correct places.

    Unfortunately, KC doesn't provide the wiring diagram online, so I don't know how the harness is prewired. All we can see from the initial post is that the the amperage in the circuit with the 3A fuse is exceeding 3A.

    - Relay plugged in the only way it can be.
    - Yellow ring terminal to battery.
    - Black ring terminal to ground.
    - Switched wired as instructed in the diagram.
    - Only weird thing to me is how the diagram illustrates that the green wire is in the center, but then states that yellow goes to center of switch. 20210813_160638.jpg 20210813_160752.jpg 20210813_160809.jpg 20210813_160939.jpg

    Yeah, I looked for one also. I've posted an image of the one that came in the box a few posts ahead.

    The picture is incorrect in the diagram. The yellow wire should be in the center of the switch. That activates the relay. The writeup in the diagram is correct describing the connection order.

    You might want to get a hitch lock if you don't have one yet. I had a ball/hitch stolen in a Walmart parking lot years ago.

    Added some 1x2 furring strips to the sides of each piece of plywood so that they fit between the 2x4 cross braces I have. also added a small furring strip piece to each cross brace to reduce lateral slide. Purposely kept the sides open so I can store stuff with easier access Probably going to add carpet and debating putting hinges on. I have the hinges, but the pieces slide in and out easy enough that I'm not sure I need to.

    Thank you for recommending... I actually got that, it's installed in the photo. It's black. Interestingly enough, I got the 3" and it wouldn't quite fit! Had to swap it with the 3.5" - the guy said "tacos should be 3" that's why I gave it to you..." Had him try it just to make sure I wasn't an idiot... Sure as **** the '21 needs a 3.5" apparently!

    Yes it does!!! It is double walled for some reason. My 3/4 ton Chevy had a smaller hitch!

    The KC harness provides power to the lamps that have 2 settings. The switch sends power to the lamps on one position - off - power to relay coil. The yellow wire goes to the relay 30 and it also to switch.
    P.S. the drawing is not incorrect, you just need to look closer.

    Picked up an OEM Tacoma Bed Mat today - sort of locally. $80. I used the Toyota.com parts link, entered in the part number and it showed a handful of local dealers prices. Just a handful and the closest one to me was about 40 miles away. Worth the drive for $80. Shipping would have cost another $45.

    Now I just need to trim the sections that the stiffeners interfere with. I read a utility knife is the best method?
