The reason for the SPDT relay, is because I don't know if the ecu normally operates when Energized or De-energized, so it can easily be switched around just by swapping one wire on the Normally Open, to the Normally closed terminals (or vice-versa)! I looked at a wiring diagram of that system but there are three ECU's that are networking together...

Main body ECU, Stabilizer ECU, and the Skid control ECU; which are using the four wheel speed sensors to control how KDSS is supposed to work! And like @Old Red has stated, you don't want the truck to start throwing DTCs in the CAN-bus system! The "Stabilizer ECU" has a Blk feed wire coming from the KDSS 10A fuse in the D/S fusebox!

This power source is HOT when in the on or start position. I might break the GND (Wh w/Blk stripe) wire, since our trucks utilize a Ground-side switch mode! And even then you may start throwing DTC's because the Stabilizer ECU has lost power; that's why I refered to this as an experiment! Hope this helps, 'Best to you'

I could definitely benefit from an on/off switch. But I'll let more technical folk figure this one out before I start hacking up harnesses.

I like the kdss alot but I want to control it. Just like switching throttle maps on the pedal commander for street vs off road conditions (Sport + vs Eco), I want to just switch the KDSS off (open) when I hit dirt.

It would be like having two different trucks. One is a "corner hugging" responsive daily the other is a plush and capable off roader.
