 On the wiring diagram for such models, there is only one wire shown going to a device. This is typically the positive power wire. Sometimes the diagram showed the housing as grounded, but other times it did not show the device as grounded even though it was being grounded thru the housing. Where multi-functions occured within the same housing, such as the taillight/​brake light, there are two wires shown running to that device, but both wires are bringing positive power for each individual function, with the ground for both functions going thru the device mounting bracket to the frame. On the wiring diagram for such models, there is only one wire shown going to a device.
