    I'd like to start by saying I'm a Toyota Fanatic and have been for 23 years. I've owned my fair share and I joined to get some help with certain questions that I can't seem to get answered.

    LoL!!! Not about girls... My wife wouldn't like that too much.
    I'm trying to figure out where I should be wiring these wires back into. The Black and Red stripe has power and I'm assuming it's for the tail lights but I'm having trouble getting them to work in reverse.
    The other wire which is Black and Sky Blue stripe has me confused.

    Some back story might help us help you.

    Are you trying to fix a specific problem and you found these wires disconnected?
    You mentioned your tail lights, do your tail lights not currently work?

    As of right now, I'm just trying to figure out which wires are which. Color schematic of all of them if possibly but that's asking a lot. I do have tail lights, they are fine. Just no reverse lights. 2 wires under the seat look good. Somebody has messed with some wires underneath the kick board and it's causing a mess. They have a wire ran from the fuse block (30) and that's to operate my windows somehow. Door locks do not work. Just the mirrors and windows.

    My fog lights are with the DRLs and it's causing my turn to flash wildly as if I have blown bulbs. They are all new and have been checked. All fuses good.

    I feel as if a lot went on behind the radio and I have to get in there sometime and do some repairs.

    And about the rust near the foot pedal. It's surface rust and luckily I'm a body man so that's no issue as of right now. It's in the works for repair.

    There is a sticky thread at the top of the 1st gen section, where you can find links to the Factory Service Manual (FSM), that will have all the wiring diagrams for the truck.

    Is there anyway any body can track down what I should be plugging these wires into? The red with black stripe and the Black with a blue stripe. Can anybody tell me where they go possibly in a picture or just let me know where they actually are supposed to go.

    trace them back to see what they are connected to? Are they a different gauge than the other wires around there? They don't look like it, which would indicate that they are not OEM.
