The Towing Hitch Camera on the 2024 Toyota Tacoma: A Game-Changer

Upon doing a few digging online, a long phone call with Chris from Toyota and some help from a trusted friend. The door pin switch which works with the dome light, that communicate with BCM is apart of the door latch itself. My 4th Tacoma came with no bed light, so I’ve been trying to find a clean solution same as OEM. There is a purple wire that grounds the latch switch that tells the dome light to come on when it’s open.. if you connect led to a constant power and negative to purple wire to a tailgate pin switch. Lights works as a dome light..

I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the towing hitch camera that comes with the 2024 Toyota Tacoma. This feature has made towing so much easier and safer. The camera offers a clear view of the hitch area, making it much simpler to line up the trailer and ensure a perfect connection. It also improves safety by allowing me to monitor the hitch in real-time and make adjustments as needed, which helps prevent any issues before we hit the road.

The camera integrates seamlessly with the Tacoma’s infotainment system, displaying the view directly on the screen, which adds a lot of convenience to the process.
