Expert Reply:
Variable voltage alternators, also known as smart alternators, did not start showing up in vehicles until 2010. Since you have a 2005 Toyota Tundra SR5 it is safe to say that you do not have a variable voltage alternator. This means you will not need to use the blue bypass wire when connecting the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger - Dual Input - DC to DC - 12V/24V - 25 Amp # 331-BCDC1225D.
