I am hooking up some driving lights to the stock wiring on my 88 RRC. The question is, how to determine which wire from the stock fog light wiring is the ground. I cut the stock plugs off the existing wiring and hooked up the lights and they work fine, but I want to make sure I have them wired correctly. They work wired to either of the two wires. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom

i will assume you know on your light what post is the ground, if not check the book.

next attatch a wire from the predetirmined ground post to the frame or any other nice metal surface. next take one of the two wires you are wondering which is positive/ground and attach one at a time to the other post on the light. the positive should light up the light and the ground will do nothing.


also the black wire tends to be ground.

i try to make that consistent throught the truck when wiring up accessories.
