97 F250HD wiring

Guy I need help. I would like to know if anyone here knows of a website where I can get the wiring diagram for the rear lights. I bought this truck and had to replace some wiring. I am installing my own custom trailer light setup and I am going to mount the fuses and relays under the hood. Can anyone show me how to identify the wiring that goes to the rear i.e tail lights left and right turn and reverse...and what colors they are. There are only 4 wires I need to tap into up front and I need to know where to locate said wires and what colors they are. Im 99% sure the Left stop and turn is light green/orange, the right stop and turn is orange/light blue and the reverse wire is black/pink. I have no idea what the tail lights are because the factory trailer wiring in the back has corroded so bad that the covering has fallen off. If anybody can gimme some help I would much appreciate it.

You are correct with the right / left Stop / TS and the reverse wiring. LH is LG/O and RH is O/LB and the reverse is BK/PK. The running lights are Brown (BR) and the ground is Black (BK).

They run up the driver's side frame rail to the smallest of the three plugs IIRC. It's the one closest to the engine. The fuel pumps, RABS, Speed sensor, etc all are in that bundle.

Yup.

Sorry, I saw "wiring diagram" and stopped reading...

I shelled out the $50 for the diagram but that's because I plan to swap a 97 EFI 460, E4OD and most of the related wiring into my 86 F250 and I plan on replacing the old fusible links with the newer power distribution center.

So it kind of makes sense to have both wiring diagrams... Even if they're $50.
