This isn't complicated, as I stated you set the current MAX at 30, and then keep lowering it until it doesn't pop the truck fuse.
You can look at it in the Ford service manual. It states the size right in there!

Maybe a picture might help you too.

I am holding a 16 AWG wire. The orange wire is the 12V wire in the 7 pin harness.
