So, resistors fixed all the issues. Lights don’t stay on after key and switch are off, no more blinking brake lights. Insulated the cut end of the tan and white and buttoned it all up. Thanks everybody!

The extra wire is a brake wire, not reverse. And yes, just the bed lights stay on after turning off the light switch. Have not swapped out the brake switch yet but that may be something I will have to do. Spoke to an installer for Hillsboro beds and he said he has run into the issue of flashing...

It’s definitely not easy being color blind and doing this lol I’ve narrowed it down to that one wire without a home. I never cut back the stock trailer wiring harness, only the one to the tail lights. other than that, issues are blinking brake lights but the wire has a steady signal and the...

Here’s the wire

Found the reverse wire, it was hiding in the loom going to the trailer harness. There’s a white/tan wire in the rear left corner of frame that comes on with brakes and I’m having a hard time finding in a diagram what it’s for. The third brake light was a bad bulb.

Thanks for clearing it up and for all the help. I will jump the pins and see what happens, hopefully it’s just a bad switch. I’ll report back with the resistors installed which should be in tomorrow. I only know enough to get me in trouble and too stubborn to pay someone.

Since I’m unfamiliar with all this electrical, can someone tell me how the range switch functions? In park, the plug has no current to it. In reverse, one pin does. Which pin goes to the reverse lights? Maybe I can jump pins and test it. I don’t want to cause more nightmares than I already have...

Here’s what I tried this time- Tested trans range sensor- far left pinned hot in reverse. It was also full of oil… still no signal at rear of harness. Ran a ground from battery all the way to the rear of the harness, that did nothing. also, on the side of the drivers battery box I found this...

long bed 5.9 48re 4x4 2500 single cab long bed Manufactured early June 05

I have checked both fuses, along with the others and they are all good. Maybe it’s a coincidence and the third brake light bulb went out, will check tonight. Not sure why I’m not getting power to the back of the truck with the reverse wire though. When tested, I have 3 hots with brakes applied...

Installed a hillsboro G1 flatbed on my 05 single cab. Cannot figure out the wiring and I'm wondering if i have more issues than being dumb. Here is what is happening- I cut back the harness to the 8 wires that went to the original tail light harnesses. Tested all functions and I have everything...
