I would be really careful with what you are doing. I just had a $900.00 repair bill that was caused from trying to wire in a homemade AIC like the one you are working with. Some how it causead a short in the system and took out the PCM and fried a couple of wires in the hareness from the PCM to the fuse box. BE CAREFUL!!!!

What model truck do you have? Is it an automatic? If so, is it the PTO type?

Not sure I found it but I could not find a rock solid write up on it, so I went with the one I posted. It works great
