    Anyone know what these two wires go to? My money is on the VSC system as my Traction light has been on for some time.

    does your truck have an amp and aftermarket speakers? those might be the wires to the doors for the speakers the purple and pink wires coenside with diagram for the door speaker on the left front door. the red wire that appears to be spliced into them suggests that too.

    That looks like a starter harness. Does it have remote start?

    Beats the F outta me. I took it to a local shop who charged me $400 to "fix" my dash tweeters and tune an amp

    i would believe the wires are for the door speakers then. they use to be part of the blue connector and were pins 18 and 17.

    If they “fixed” the dash tweeters it was them cutting up the factory wiring to get it all working. I bet your center speaker doesn’t work at all.

    Dual voice coil center speaker comes off the side dash speakers.
    If the sides work, the center should too, I think...
    Unless they hacked in between the side and center dash speakers

    Dash%20speaker%20sch_zpslwntqrpo_2a0e310e005b7dd2ceb96f669fc001438e7b91db.jpg

    As others states, the colors certainly look like the left speaker.

    Does the dash fade left to right correctly?
    DOES the center speaker work?

    Sure looks like a hack job by whom ever 'fixed' your audio if those are indeed the speaker leads..

    I think they bypassed it all because of the center speaker causing issues.

    I’ve seen it on other Toyota’s when people do a “quick” fix for odd sounding systems because of that center speaker

    From the pic above your post it looks like they go to the amp.

    [​IMG]

    @texasrho83 Is your HU and amp stock or aftermarket?
    I'm guessing aftermarket since you paid to get it tuned and one of the cables by the amp looks like an RCA cable.
    Might be an amp ground wire I'm seeing..
    What HU and amp are you running?
