lol thats the writeup im talkin about check my first post

 

"On the bottom row you should have 6 wires. You will want to pinpoint the 3rd one from the left. It should be the only blue/red wire there." theres even a picture

 

he knew the right wire, just messed up on which side to ground. he ground the side going to the locker instead of the wire coming out of the harness

 

Thanks for this post, I just got it done today on my 2000 4runner sport. It was a blue wire with a red stripe, the only one. I used this write up also.

Step 4 does say this so there shouldn't be a confusion.

"Solder the wire coming out of the white harnass to an extension wire, which you will be grounding."

I just posted this for the next person who may need it.

 

Make a 12 patch wire. If you want to match the size of the gray wire then use 18ga wire for the patch. I used 14ga since that's what I had on hand, and it worked fine. Crimp a butt connector on one end of the patch wire, and a 3/8 ring connector on the other end. Once you're sure both the ring and butt connector are secure, cut the gray wire about 3 from the white 4WD computer connector and splice the patch wire to the gray wire. Make sure you splice into the end coming from the white connector.

Note: In some rare cases, there is a different color wire used in place of the grey wire. The best way to identify the correct wire is to locate prong number 8. This wire is in the bottom middle of the plug, between a green/yellow wire and a white/black wire. See this wiring diagram for more info.

12 PATCH WIRE SPLICE PATCH WIRE INTO GRAY WIRE


Next, locate a screw to ground to. Any screw going into the body will work. The one I used is right above the 4WD computer and already had some equipment grounded to it. Itís a 10mm brass colored bolt which is easy to reach and is an excellent candidate. I taped up all connections for added protection against shorts, as well as to keep the wire from pulling out of the connectors. I also recommend putting a small piece of electrical tape over the unused end of the gray wire for protection against a short. The unused end will be the end running up into the dash.

in your case NOT GREY, read the NOTE:
hope this helps

 

Hello everyone, i'm new to this forum as well as toyotas. I just bought a 2000 tacoma TRD . Which has the elocker. Reading this write up, is there anything different about performing this grey wire mod to my truck from the 4runners? or will the wires all be the same colours? anything else i should watch for?

Thanks, kyle.

 

So in phongs writeup it says extend 6 wires from the locker harness to the ecu http://sonoransteel.com/phong/retrof...ic_locker.html
