Ok I'm sure this is a question at least some of us have had....does anyone have a diagram of the convenience center/accessory panel on the firewall near the e brake showing which plugs are "Hot" all the time and are "Hot" when the key is on? I need to locate 3 that are switched on when key is on to run the driving light harnesses in barons harness, power my temp/compass mirror and to run an aux fuze box under the hood.

I don't have a pin out diagram on hand for the junction block chris, but I can provide you with a picture and precise terminal locations tomorrow for you!

Not a problem Chris! The install should be a piece of cake for ya inside the truck! :cheers:

Im gonna pick up some gromets for the holes in the firewall and some zipties to add split looming to the trailer brake control wiring and the fog light wiring to give both harnesses an OE look

The two non loomed wires coming out of the harness that go to the switch, can easily be tucked into the OE loom that runs along the drivers side inner fender as well Chris! The clips that hold the loom to the fender, can easily be released with a regular screw! Just a tip for ya!

Nice! Will def look into that for damn sure! Question, are those wires long enough to reach the center hump over the trans? Heres why I ask..

I'm going to talk to my buddy about fabbing a wider and more integrated version of this with more space for extra switches and a couple aux 12 v lighter sockets.

Yes the wires are long enough to reach the center tunnel hump! That would be a nifty little switch panel!

Nice! Def looking forward to getting the truck setup! I will prob be talking to you soon about a couple more harnesses for this truck for some fog lights in the front bumper once I get a diesel bumper, and for a set of aux reverse lights.

Alright, I snapped a picture for you that I'll PM to you shortly!

A terminal that is switched 12V+ (Has 12V+ when the key is in the ON and ACC position) is located on the junction block as follows Chris:

Starting from the far left hand bottom corner, count 4 terminals to the right and then 1 row up. This terminal SHOULD be a switched 12V+ source, it is labeled ORNG. You should check it with a test light to verify on your particular truck, but that should be the terminal your looking for!
