Three wires. One blue/yellow, one gray, and one black/yellow
They are the same on both side of the connectors and one side goes to TCU and one side goes to the brake white plastic pintle switch. Hope this picture helps

If I'm not mistaken, we might tip our hats to Radi. I myself never heard if that switch until he brought it up. Supper info in any case.
