    Howdy all,

    while taking apart the front bumper of my Tacoma 2016 I notice this plug that didnt have anything plugged to it. The wire runs directly with the sensor/pump of that reservoir. any idea what connects to it or what it is for?

    I think the fog light harness is on the right side of his hand in the picture. I think the canadian tacomas have a sensor for the washer fluid level where ours are wired for but dont have it?

    not really, the foglights were connected elsewhere.

    As mentioned, it's a plug for the washer fluid sensor. Don't bother trying to make it work for our (USA) trucks, there's no support
    in the instrument cluster for it. Ask me how I know... :rolleyes::D
