Cab marker lights power supply

Hi All-

Does the wire that runs power to the roof mounted marker lights run along the drivers side A-piller? I have a red wire under the interior trim that was cut and left dangling by the previous owner. I am guessing this must be it since the marker lights will not turn on.

Where is the wire suppose to run to?

Thanks-
Jason

Behind the passenger's kick panel there is a two wire harness. That's it. But it is possible that someone putting them in not from the factory hooked them elsewhere.

Oh there is quite a mess under there. The previous owner had wired up some secondary lights, toggle switches for some unknown thing, a break controller, etc... He cut the wires all out, removed the lights and just left crap hanging in there.

Any good electrical guys around Indianapolis want to help a guy out? I am pretty good on the barbecue

To hook my cab lights up, I just tapped directly to the headlights and ran it thru the drivers side A-pillar. Thats also where my gauge light power source goes to. Only thing is when I turn on the high beams they flash. But thats okay, I never use my high beams anyway.

Pass side kick panel, ther is a bank of connectors, a 2 wire one is left w/ only one side it is brown & black wires. This feeds the roof mounted lights the factory harness goes up the pass post to the roof then across the roof to the 5 cab lights. Don't tap in anywhere else the factory harness is there, supplied, & fused just use it and get all the previous owners spaghetti wiring job out before you have an electrical fire.
