A Trac Question (1 Viewer)

[Jeff Cooper]

My wife’s 2014 FJC has the rear diff lock, but not the A Trac switch next to it. It is my understanding that it should be pre-wired and all I need to do is get a switch for it.

Unfortunately we are not the original owners and the previous owner had a switch for driving lights in that position. There is a blank switch cover connected to the wire bundle shown in the attached picture which has 5 wires to the connector.

My question (before I go buy an A-Trac switch) is: Is this the correct wire harness for A-Trac?

Thanks in advance!

Each harness is keyed a specific way for each switch. Here's the back of the A-trac switch.

My problem is that I have 2 harnesses which are currently not used and their connectors both seem very similar.

Not sure I I could find out by the color of the wires or not(?)

Or possibly the color of the connector (?)

If you buy the switch from a dealership and it doesn't fit, you can always return it. Show me a pic of the harness that shows the plastic as it interfaces with the pic I posted above.

They both look quite similar to me…
The black connector was on the back side of the top row of switches and the blue connector was on the bottom row. Not real sure if that means a hill of beans(?)

Thanks for taking your time with this!

From what I can see its the black one.



I think the blue is for the optional roof lights, but even if you get a switch its pretty unusable without some additional harness, fuses, ect....so let that one just live on back there.

Doesn't appear to be either of those.
That atrac switch is keyed on one side only and appears to be four pins

I’ll tear it all open and see what else is back there.

We are the 2nd owners and the previous owner added 3 rocker switches but not sure what any of them are for

I found a more recent video that doesn't look like it was filmed with a Blackberry device. Here's a screen cap of the plug showing the wire colors.

Awesome!

Thanks.

I’ve got a switch ordered
