Does the 4x4 selector dial light up?

I've got a 2WD but there are wires that terminate on the back of the coin holder that is in place of the 4x4 selector.

I want to know if one of these wires could be for the light.

If so, I can wire my tranny temp guage light to that wire.

Never mind...

The wires that terminate there have power.

For those who need to know...the striped wire is the dashlight feed and is controled with the dimmer switch. Black is ground. The other two must be for the 4x4 and they have no power to them.
