Can anybody explain to me where the cable from box plugs into. When I got vehicle it was unplugged and not sure what plug it connects to. Thank you if someone can help me

It connects to a cannon plug on the back of the cab I believe. Not the one up high, that one is for a rotating wrecker light I think.

If I remember my truck correctly, the troop transport alarm cable actually snakes around and mates with a connector near the fuel water separator or near the upper driver side of the engine block . This allows the cab to raise without disconnecting the cable.

Did a quick check of the -24P manual and found the kit containing the cable. However, I did not find a diagram with the mating connector on the truck. Hopefully, I can send you a picture during daylight hours.

Here are some photos to clarify. These photos are on the driver's side and towards the rear of the engine. The white filter is the fuel / water separator. Three branches come off the wiring harness at this location. One branch goes low to the transmission. Second branch is not connected on my truck. The third branch has blue tape identifier for troop transport alarm. Best I could see, the troop transport alarm connector is labeled P39.

Let me know if I can provide additional info.
