To anyone who has a clue,
I would love to know more about the "aftermarket auxiliary lighting", "flood light" and spare ports in the engine bay fuse box. Like what has power with the ignition or what has power with the lighting, etc.
For instance I'm putting on some grill acent lights and would like to have them tied to the parking lights instead of a separate switch. I would just use the headlight harness but those shut off with the directionals. So, I want to find the ones for the rear in the fuse box/engine bay. Or I'll just do it the hard way and spend a few days under the vehicle tracking wires...

Thanx for any help or related interests

Or, what color is the rear parking light wire in the brake light harness?

I usually have a tough time applying what I see in the schematics to what I'm seeing in the vehicle.
I think at this point I'm going to try and find where the rear light wire pack enters the engine bay.
However the fuse box description doesn't list the rear lights.

Not sure if anyone is listening, but,
I realized that the headlight units have their own electrical components and processors.
So I am crossing my fingers that perhaps when the parking lights turn off with the directionals, it is an international process and that the headlight wire harness supplies power consistently.
Now I just need to identify which wire is for the parking LEDs.

I will try today.
I just looked it up. You may find all you need on this site.

It seems that the two photos in this forum are showing connections from the headlight assembly to the body control module for the turn signals. That narrows it down a bit.

Thanks, owe you one.
Next time I'm in Ohio...

I took one look at the actual box under the hood and said, not going there... I put in a Garmin power switch with trigger through driver door grommet (plenty of posts on this) IMO easiest solution by far. Just getting ready to add a Rhino rack and lighting, will post once it’s done. Lost of good intel on this forum of how to do this stuff just dig a bit.

Ya, I realized the engine bay fuse box is pretty much a sealed unit as far as adding anything.
I am trying to find the wire that feeds the parking lights or DRL in the front to tap into for some grill lights.
Picks on the light bar would be great. Dont know if you saw it but what ford put out requires removing about 40% of the interior trim.
