Anyone have an idea

where this connects to? I looked at the wiring diagram and don't see it! 1978 FJ40 light switch area. Comes from the harness, two red wires to the female spade.
Am I blind, or????
Thanks for any and all help!

everything work? if so its prolly just an extra wire for something that your 40 didn't come with in the US

then again it might be for something

I knew I was forgetting something. The dash lights don't work.

If it is un-insulated and has a small tab that sticks out of the back(looks kinda like it in the pic from what I can tell) it is made to fit in the plastic housing of the plug. I would unplug it and make sure that all wire spades match from plug to plug.

Ahhh, you can get a small pick or flat screwdriver and bend that tab up a bit and it should be fine, as thats the only thing that keeps it held in place in the plastic plug. Simply push it back in till it locks in place.

Well, long story shorter, they work. that was the lost connection.
Thanks mucho! So much nicer seeing the guages at night, specially the gas guage!
