Wiring for backup lights??

My kids got me a set of LED lights I want to mount to the frame of my Pinnacle and tie them into the backup wiring from the 7-pin connector. Now even though these RV towables don’t typically have backup lights included in the brake or running lights on the rear, does Jayco include the wiring for backup lights in the wiring bundle run to the rear? It would be helpful if I had a wiring diagram for the Pinnacle. Anyone have a diagram or know if I’m going to find an used wire running to lights at the rear of the FW?

My little SLX 195 has the backup capped off in a little box on the A frame right at the front of the trailer. I had to run my own wires from there to the back to connect to my LED backup lights.

If you have a light beside your hitch, like the NorthPoint does, take it off and pull the wires out from the 7-way plug. That’s where they terminate.
The yellow wire is the reverse light wire, I would assume it’s not hooked to anything.

Here’s my back up light mod

It’s on a Nothpoint and our layouts are different, but I could find no way of feeding a wire across the overhang to get to that hole with the wires. Maybe you can get an idea from what I did
