Wiring light bar to running lights
 
Hey everyone, I have a light bar that we have had in our shed for a while that is meant to be for a trailer I think, but figured I would use them as a tail light bar under my tailgate. I painted them up, got them mounted, but cannot figure out which is the running light wire. Anyone know? I know the ground is the white one because I have my aux reverse light hooked up to that.

brown wire will be your running lights and light green will be the turn signal.

I thought it was the brown one too, because I used that for my LED's in the grille but I think it was blowing the fuse when I tried it. Ill have to give it another shot. Would it matter if I am connecting it to the wires for the 4pin trailer connector?

no you can use that wire but if it blew a fuse before it will blow a fuse on the trailer connector as well, theyre all connected.
