2015 Aux Reverse Light Wire
Hi All
Any one have a diagram or know which wire to tap so I can trigger/run my aux back up light? I tried tapping the existing wire behind the tail light and it didn't work, made the truck do funny stuff like killing the ignition. I had read on here on white knights web site that on the newer trucks you cannot use the back up circuit from the seven pin so I didn't try that. I don't have up-fitters and really didn't want to run a wire to the front but will if that is the best solution.
Thanks in advance.

If you are planning to do a bunch of reverse lights, you should run a wire from the battery to a relay then have the relay connected to the backup wire but if you are just doing a single LED light or something like that, this should work fine.

I am just going to hook up a single "fog light" that I have had laying around to get some extra light. I should of ordered a back up cam but live and learn.

Update
I tapped into the center wire on the 7 pin under the bumper and all is well. Thanks to all for the info.
