I looked back by the spare tire area, frame area, where the wiring harness starts to go through frame in back then heads towards the middle of the truck, and I DO NOT SEE and green wire taped off anywhere. I did find a trailer plug, a rubber plug with a little rubber cap connected to it. So I opened it up and saw one round prong and 3 round holes. So I went to NAPA store and bought a matching rubber plug with 3 round prongs and one round hole. Plugged both together,skinned off tips of 4 wires, a green wire,yellow wire,brown wire, white wire. Then at the cap brake light I have 2 wires coming from their, one Red wire and one Black wire. So I took those 2 wires and wired a disconnect to it (red to red, black to black) then I had my Wife get inside the Ranger and had her press the brake pedel as I touched the red wire coming from cap brake light and the touched the black wire to the white wire. the cap brake light comes on when the brake pedal is pressed, and goes out when taking foot off the brake pedal. So I thought that was correct. Just to mention, I tried touching the black wire coming from the cap brake light to the other wires (yellow,brown) with the pedal pressed and the cap light didnt come on, only when I touched to the white wire (black to white) so, when left turn signal is blinking, cap brake light DOESNT Blink which I believe thats how it should work correctly, When right turn signal is blinking, the cap light BLINKS,which it shouldnt work that way to be correct. So now im Puzzeld ????? What do I do to keep the cap light from blinking with the right turn signal on ????? PLEASE HELP ??? Thanks.
