I did some searching around and found that a black and pink wire gave +12v when in reverse.

However while randomly driving down the road it also gives +12v in drive.

Anyone have an alternate wire to try?

Thanks for any and all help!
 






Tap into the wire that gives 12V+ to the rear reverse light. Not sure of the color, but you can just run a wire back to the actual plug if need be.
 






So I planned on doing that, however since I am in a sport trac my bed is separate from my cab, so that means running more wires inside to outside, I was hoping to find that circuit inside.
 






Uh, good point, didn't notice that.
All the wiring travels in the loom of wires on the drivers side. I'm not sure the color, but you should be able to find it there.
Find the color in the back at the light, see if you can find it there.
