Parking Lights+ brown   +   driver kick panel
Parking Lights- gray/black   -   BCM, brown plug, pin B2
Notes: The BCM (Body Control Module) is under the driver side dash. It has 6 plugs in it, the purple plug is on the back.

Horn Trigger BLACK / YELLOW to black   -   steering column

thank yo swamprat323

to recap: run white 12v wire from keyless to ?? not clear what you mean

The (-)200 mA horn wire from the keyless will go to the BLACK / YELLOW wire in steering column

The KE-30 is shown as having a on board parking light relay. If the output from the system is positive than you would hook the output from the system to the brown wire in the truck as listed above. If the output is negative then you would hook it to the gray/black listed above. If the parking light circuit has both a supply and output (which is what I think your system is), then I would recommend hooking the parking light supply side to ground and the output side to the gray/black negative parking light trigger at the BCM. By using the negative trigger it will reduce the current being drawn by the aftermarket keyless unit.

Hope this helps.

the output from the keyless system for the parking lights is one wire and it is positive. would anyone be able to give the specific location of the brown wire in the drivers side kick panel as mentioned above. i see a yellow connector with a brown wire or should i be looking in the harness for this wire. or is it coming off the fuse box in the drivers kick panel??

any help would be a blessing
