The white wire seen on the Tow Ready T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118316 is the ground.
If you are needing a feed for reverse lights, your trailer will typically have a 5-pole trailer connector on it.
You can use an adapter like part # 20036, and the extra blue wire would be tapped into the reverse light circuit on the truck.
