Can Single Running Light Circuit Power LED Clearance Lights on Truck Flat Bed
Question:
I have a 2005 GMC 2500. I am installing a 5 to 4 wire inverter due to putting a flatbed on the truck. The bed has led lights which use 4 wire. I have already hooked it up only using one brown wire from my original wiring harness. It has two. One for left and one for right side. Should I tie both the brown wires to my input side which is the 5 wire side on my brown wire. It works with just one brown wire. Both brown wires should be the same circuit. Picture is of my factory pin connector and wiring.

Hey Robert, you do not need to more than the one brown wire (running light circuit) for the lighting on your bed. Just the one circuit would power all of the lights easily.
