Look for the wire that is labeled "CHMSL", usually taped up to the rear of the wiring harness above the rear bumper.

When I bought the truck it had the wire hooked to a green wire behind the bumper. I do not see any label on the wire.

Maybe you can elaborate a little more on what you are trying to do?

Put a meter on those 2 wires and see if it gets V when the brake is applied.

I bought this truck with the topper on it but the upper brake light is not working. I checked the connection's. They have is wired with the ground hooked to the body of the truck behind the drivers side tail light and the power wire hooked up to a green wire with a black heat shrink cap on it that is located behind the bumper and just over the spare tire. I will try to check some voltage.
