Rear Taillight Brake wire? which color is it????

[PhantomX]

I'm modifying my rear brake lights to work with my brake light flasher module but it got dark and I don't want to cut and splice the wrong wires.....which color is the power for the brake lights? can anyone tell me?

*I have one set up on my third brake light & it works great.....But as of Right now I'm just testing if my module will work with my two rears*



If possible can any of you tell me which ones the Running light, Brake & ground?

If I had to guess.....I would say i's the red wire with no stripe.

I looked around ealier....and spent a good hour trying to find/download wiring diagrams for e46...with no luck

Do you have a multimeter? Just test for 12v at the plug while someone presses the brake pedal, turns on the turn signal, etc.

Out of curiosity, what does the brake light flasher module do? Just allow you to turn on the brake lights at any time - e.g. to do a "pretend" brake-check on tailgaters?

The flasher module...makes your brake lights strobe for a few seconds then stays constant as long as you press the brake ...

Sockethead....yeah i think i have one, gotta find it though
