    Hi All,

    I was wondering if any one can help me identify a switched power source at the driver's side kick panel. I am trying to hook up a bumper sensor system that needs switched power. I have a 2013 prius model level five.

    Thanks in advance,

    Yumseyo

    There is a white wire next to a red wire in the harness with the thicker wires in it that is switched.

    For electrical issues in cars you need to work like aliens do. Use a probe. Consistent use of a probe brings understanding.

    You DO know aliens only do that because they don't look at the diagrams?
