Hot wire when placed in drive
Hey guys, Just as the title states. I'm looking for a wire that goes hot when the truck is placed in drive. There has to be one, right? I looked in the Fleet body builders diagrams but didn't see it.
My truck is a 2015 F250 6.2L crew cab.

I do not think so.. I can not think of a single reason for one.
WHY?

I'm looking to activate a third-party DRL relay circuit to light up a set of aftermarket lights. I only want them to turn on when the truck is in drive, similar to the factory DRL's.

Pretty sure the DRL's come on with the ignition

I could probably use the factory DRL circuit if there's a way for me to disable power to the headlights.
Does anyone know if there is a way to tap the factory DRL circuit before it sends power to the headlights.

Is it possible to use something like the gear shift position switch or something like that to trigger my relay? What about the transmission? Is there a wire harness?
