I have a 2011 1500slt and I took the center dash out to expose my radio and there was green wires with a orange chip not attached to anything. What do these go to?

Could be a few things, trailer brake wire, accessories your truck didnt have such as heated seats or power rear window, 120v power receptacle, 4wd switch, backup sensors, down hill assist . . .

Was the 120v an option on those trucks? That connector is in the exact same location as the 120v if you didnt have it.

Not trailer brakes... The pre-'13 trucks have the brake controller under the headlight switch... It's also too big and not enough pins for the optional Aux Switch module...
