    Hi yall

    I need some guidance on completing the YWM on my 2010 4x4 DC Sr5...specifically locating the +12v wire behind the glove box. This wire only supplies +12v when activated by the ignition switch and needs tapped with the yellow/black wire cut from 9-PC to supply a constant +12v to the Skid Control ECU.

    Also need insight on how to attach the yellow/black wire cut from 9-PC into a 100ohm resistor, which would then be tapped into the +12v wire described above. How do I pick the resistor, where do I buy it from, what does it look like, how does it get tapped into +12v?

    Here is the best set of instructions I could find to reference after reading every TW and YotaTech thread on the matter: 4L-TRAC, done right - YotaTech Forums

    The existing threads are dead/inactive, so hoping for a miracle that one of you can provide some guidance.

    Thanks!

    Yeah, I love your write up. It is the right way to do it, even for folks like me with manual transmission. I think it is even more necessary for folks with automatic transmissions to do it your way as well. I share it quite a bit.

    BZ, brother.
