Andy MOD 2.0 w/real TRAC Off Switch

This is just a quick write-up on the Andy MOD 2.0 using a real TRAC Off switch from a Toyota Avalon. I want to start by thanking four members. Without their help, I would not have been able to make this happen. 98OzarksRunner sportrunner2001 nor_cal51501 v3bahumut Like many other members, I want to keep the stock interior look as much as possible. I started out by using a Toyota Avalon factory TRAC Off switch that I picked up from a fellow member. This switch is normally open, and needs to have a relay to operate it. I picked up a 5 pin BWD R3074 relay from my local Autozone. I then cut the red wire with the black trace for the Andy MOD 2.0. From here I used butt connectors on each end of the wires to extend them about 12" to the relay. This is a basic drawing of the wiring outline for the relay. These wires are run to 87A and 30 on the relay. From here I used 86 as my power and 85 as my ground. My power is coming from an open spot on the fuse block under the dash on the drivers side. With the ground being directly below (picture shows it halfway cut off). I have the main power from the fuse box running into the TRAC Off switch, and out to the relay (86). You can see the four wires all hooked up here. I then mounted the relay to one of the screws used to secure the gauge cluster. Next, I ran the wires to the location on the dash I used. This is the final result. You can see that I moved the security module to another location. I swapped the security module and the CDL switch. Now I have the TRAC Off and CDL side by side.

Hey Guys, I am getting ready to do this mod. I got the hardware needed. I just have a quick question, I got this scion xb 2005 trac switch. I see 3 plate male connectors, are the 2 that are close to each other, just one connector? Otherwise i have 3 male connectors? How would i know which ones to use?

TIA!

the pigtail connector that you're missing will answer your question. Only 2 of the 3 prongs are used. For the Scion xB TRAC OFF switches, the pigtail/connector uses the outer prongs (the middle prong is not used)..
