I'm trying to figure out which wore coming out of my taillight wire harness powers my reverse light. I'm installing an aftermarket backup camera and I've been looking online and I'm pretty sure it's white with light green strip but would like to be for certain before going farther.

Hi,

The power to the reverse lamps is a white wire with a light green tracer. I attached the wiring schematic for the backup lamp circuit below.

Take a look through them and let me know if it helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe

See pics below. Note: I had to cut the schematic in half to make it readable. I did overlap them so you can follow from one to the next.
