Help identify black wires

[Alfie]

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows what these wires are for? They run down the passenger side. Fog lamp wire runs down driver side so not that. Sure it's either reversing camera or one of the aerials. Thanks

If the reversing camera is not aftermarket it won't be for that as that wiring is part of the tailgate wiring harness.

 

I cannot believe Toyota would leave unbound wiring like that.

 

I suppose it could be 'parallel' wiring if there was a problem with the original wiring.

I’m pretty sure that ain’t original Toyota wiring, they would use coloured wire for the outgoing (positive) line, maybe black for the ground (negative) line but not same for both.

Yeah must be aftermarket then, I'll have to trace it back.

[Alfie]

Aha seems to be these aerials on the back, could it be for the etc card box? Or TV?

[Rojie]

Looks like an auxiliary light; but is it attached to the sun roof glass ?

[Alfie]

It's attached to the rear window, two of them, aerials for either TV, radio or etc card reader.

[wjvh]

Probably the card reader thing. Trace it forwards to the cab to see what it is connected to.

ETC wouldnt be that shoddy, thats a owner modification, so aerial for TV/DAB
