OOPS!!! Disregard!

It should be pin 7 with the BK/LG wire, not pin 6.

Pin 7 is the one offset in the center. It is fed by a relay in the under-hood fuse panel. Power to that relay is provided by fuse F5 which also feeds the trailer running lamp circuit.

Fuse #5 (20a) Trailer Tow Backup/Park Lamps
Fuse #19 (10a) Trailer Tow Stop and Right Turn Lamp
Fuse #20 (10a) Trailer Tow Stop and Left Turn Lamp
Fuse #101 (30a) Trailer Tow Battery Charge
Fuse #108 (30a) Trailer Tow Electric Brake
Relay #201 Trailer Tow Park Lamp Relay
Relay #203 Trailer Tow Backup Lamp Relay
Relay #302 Trailer Tow Battery Charge Relay

IIRC there were some relays in the same bag as the brake controller harness and the 4 pin adapter that came in our truck. I don't remember what they are for though.

Set your e-brake, turn the key on, shift into reverse, check for power on pin #7. If you have power on pin #7 with the truck's reverse lights on and you don't when the truck's reverse lights are off, then you're all set.

Your owner's manual has the layout and listing for the relay/fusebox. Look for "trailer backup lamps".
