No one can help you if you don't at least state what year the truck is.

What..? You're not an electrical engineer....
C'mon, man. I have degrees in Waxology, and am certified in taillight, bulb and resistor installations.
I was also head of my class in checking air pressure..

Kidding aside, why are you searching for them inside the cab?

Hey OP, what are you looking to do?? I ask only because I did one mod on my truck years ago (which I have since removed) that would only work finding the appropriate right/left ground wire--not hot wire. The turn signals are "ground" activated at the switch. If you want the hot wire, you'll likely have to find the flasher and work from there.

hey thanks for the input guys
I am trying to do a side camera that is mounted at the side mirrors and for the screen to switch when i am signaling, I need a positive wire as a trigger. Similar to the reverse camera when you put the car in reverse.

The turn signal wire is a pulsing signal though, so that wouldn't work.
