Default Trying to find a wire to tap into...

Trying to figure out if there is a certain wire I can tap into that causes the parking lights to flash when I lock or unlock my Jeep. Have some extra lights I want to light up and wanted to tap them into that same circuit.

I wouldn't recommend it. The stock lights are controlled by the CPU and tapping into them might cause things to get wonky or no longer function. But if you want to try it, just tap into the side marker light attached to the fender. Easiest place I can think to access a wire triggered by lock/unlock.

It's a very very low draw light. Thanks.
