Third brake light HELP!
I'm in the middle of the install for the ORO plateLITE and need help. I am using these instructions and I think there is a problem. Wiring it this way will blink the third brake light when using the right turn signal. I think.... Am I missing something? Please help!

ok So I just wired it in according to JKkat's instructions and the license light works as it should but the brake light doesnt light up at all. Any ideas?

ps I hooked the brake wire into the black wire on the taillight harness.

I spliced my break wire into the third brake wire from the back of the tail gate. It goes from the tailgate right by the back right mount of the roll bar where there is a rubber grommet. I hooked into it about that area, under the carpet.

WOW! Genius of the year here! Its supposed to go into the white/yellow wire, not the black one. Only I could turn something so simple into something so complicated.

EDIT!!! It does what I thought it was going to do. It blinks with the turn signal. Need to know what wire Robar used so I can wrap this up and move on to installing the lift tomorrow.

Its the white and black wire coming out of the tailgate. Got it wired up and working great. The only problem now is trying to juggle the nearly 100 pound spare into place with the license bracket and the wiring for the taillight.
