    Can anyone please help me to find what this unused JL 8 pin connector is for underneath the driver side kick panel in my 2012 tundra. I've been doing some electrical work and mods that require me to work in the area and I noticed this connector. I can't find a female connector for it and was wondering if it is for a remote start or something else. Im in the process of trying to figure out why my drive monitor or info button mod isn't working. And this connector has me wondering what else I may be able to do it was taped to the wiring harness that I believe is coming from the instrument cluster. If anyone can help me figure this out so I know what it's for I would really appreciate it.

    That's fucking great haha but doesn't get me any bit closer to finding out what that JL connector is for.

    So how do I go about hooking it back up. When I got the truck it was missing the security system horn relay and I purchased and installed that and with living in Portland oregon having the glass break sensor being active would be a great addition
