Hot wiring tail light

Apoc370z · 10-13-2012, 05:13 PM

This dumbas forgot to bring the tester home so i could test the wiring so hopefully you guys can give me a hand.

I am installing my fog light at the moment and i am tying to hot wire the foglight wires to the tail and license plate light.

Question is, i see 5 wires from the tailight socket... Red,yellow, green, light green and black.

Assuming the black wire is the ground wire, what are the others for? Any help is appreciated

as a rule I usually assume red is power. But the headlight parking light had dark green as power. From what Ive read it is indeed the red wire, but I would get a second opinion because I havent actually done it. Good luck man
