Does anybody know where the (-) parking lights wire is located and what color it is. The door triggers are (-) and the only parking light wire I can find is (+). The problem is the Clifford Matrix 3.5 has a jumper for (-) or (+) and it controls the door trigger and the parking lights. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

Are you sure that the jumper controls both? That doesn't make much sense.

THANKS for the info! The jumper sure did seem to control both when I swapped it and tried different things. This is my first install though so it may be me...thanks again.

the jumper just controls the parking light, green is for (-) doors and purple for (+) doors.

It is a clifford Matrix 3.5. I don't see the install guide on their site. The jumper definitely controls the parking lights. When I change it though it makes the door triggers work funny. They work so when the alarm is armed I open the door and nothing happens and then when I close it the alarm starts going off. When I switch the jumper back the doors work perfect but the parking lights do not. I haven't been home to look for the (-) parking lights and see if that fixes it but I will let you all know when I get home. I appreciate all the help.

The light green wire did the trick. Thanks everyone for your help!
