    Yea I just grabbed the dash piece. One is a fog light and the rest just go to the blanks. I have both plugs for the clutch pedal so maybe it’s there. I just looked around real quick and didn’t see it but could be over looking it. That’ll kinda suck if I have to wire it in.

    Per the diagram once Jeff Lange helped me out, the CSC is meant to go in the bottom row, center spot. I'll take a closer look next time I'm in my 2G, probably for tomorrow morning's coffee run if I don't have to take 4wd (snowed here this evening).

    Sounds good thanks I’ll keep looking too. We haven’t got anything yet, fingers it stays that way.

    For the two that match on our trucks, I think the white one is traction control and the black one (6 position, 5 pinned) is apparently for accessory power (is that the inverter)?

    One wonders how many parts are missing to get the inverter going. I assume going aftermarket and real power would be a preferable option.

    Yesterday I dropped the driveshaft off, should be done Tuesday/Wednesday next week. I also tracked down and picked up a 12-15 dash piece. The one below the hvac controls. I needed this so I could cleanly install my heated seat switches.

    Today I got a little done during the kids nap time, tightened up the transmission installed starter. Tested the gauge cluster and 12+ hvac controls my bulbs and built harness worked like it should. No more orange. Middle section of dash is back together. I also prepped/painted the silver trim around the gauge cluster. The cup holder I had bought, the guy had painted it grey. Didn’t notice till I got going through my parts. Ideally I want a black one from a base truck. I decided to try paint stripper to remove it and the silver. Bad idea, left a sticky gunk that needed scraped off. It looks bad sooo I’ll be ordering a new one.

    Still waiting on my master to slave line, redarc brake controller and some wiring/brackets before I finish the dash.

    Couple questions I have, reverse switch what wires from the auto harness need to be wired to the reverse switch? And is there a plug/pins so it can have an actual plug instead of some fem. Spade connectors? I also noticed there is a sensor with 3 wires on the output shaft of the t case. I assume speed sensor? I also don’t have this plug so need a hand with wiring to that and a plug/pins.

    Thanks!

    Does that wire color follow to the nss plug on the transmission end?

    Time, Grime and UV light might've changed wire color...

    I’ll see what I can find on my truck. Electrical is my hands down weakness.

    Got the plug for the reverse light sensor on order. I also was able to get the ecm installed and most of the dash put back together. I don’t have the clutch start cancel plug. Like I said wiring is my weakness anyone got a pretty black and white description on how I need to wire that? I will have to source a plug/switch still.

    ^^ That's my plan if I ever get time to approach it. Not sure if you have the clutch switch as part of your gear or not. Cruise uses a different switch so if you don't have it and don't want it then no major reason to add it.

    Perfect thanks I have both plugs on the pedal so I’ll just wire it the same as the link so I can have the button. This whole thing would be done a lot sooner if I wasn’t changing a bunch of other stuff.

    Little update, I got my clutch bracket brace installed on the fire wall, bolt checked the bottom side, hooked up exhaust, front driveline is in, built a wire tail for the reverse light switch (plug will be here next week), fuse/relay panel and bracket installed, built and ran new wire harnesses for all my accessories, cleaned up battery tray and painted, redarc brake controller installed, heated seat switches installed.

    Clutch line showed up today I just need to cut to length and install the fittings. The driveline is done I am going to grab it tomorrow. Only thing left will be to bleed the the clutch and set the immobilizer.

    I won’t make any progress tomorrow or Saturday BUT with any luck I’ll button it up Sunday. Still waiting for some misc. trim pieces to roll in but that’s no biggy.

    @caribe makaira I am terrible at following diagrams any chance you can give me a hand with wire colors and locations? What I need to go is wire my auto harness to be in neutral so my 4 low will engage. Sounds like at the NSS I need to tie the blue/white wire to the yellow Ign. power. Only problem with that is the "N" light will be illuminated 24/7. I do not want this. My thought was if there is a Ign. wire on the 4x4 switch that I could pull that power from so the "N" light is only illuminated when in 4x4. Or even better powers that N circuit when switched to 4 low so the 4 low will engage. Looks like I could make my connection at the black IH1 plug you posted a few posts back. Hopefully that makes sense and is doable?

    Thanks!
