Brake lights out?

Hi all, OK I usually get on here about my OLD 90 F-150, 0r the 87...BUT I now have a 2010 F150 XLT 4WD. I bought it the week after I bought my farm because I need a truck and it (I haven't built my 90 shortbed yet). It has been a great truck but as it is with all habits... I wanted to upgrade a bit. I am putting in a icer Stereo, Double DIn, and a reverse Camera. I have done the cameras before so they aren't that hard....or so I thought.. I tapped into my Drivers side Reverse light for power, and after cutting in.. (I usually tap in but was out of Taps) My brake lights are dead. Likewise my Camera is not working. I all the wiring has been redone, is tight and correct.. The grey wire is the (Hot) wire and the Green & Black is the ground.. I have now power. I am assuming it blew the relay when I cut in and was testing... Anyone else have a similar issue?

Looking at my owner's manual, it shows fuse 6 (20A) and it controls the turn signals/stop lamps. This is in the panel on the passenger side kick panel. The only relays that I see related to the stop lamps is for the left and right side for a trailer.
