Aux switches passthrough

Apparently pin 4 of the second aux switch connector under the hood, is a pass through. Where does it go? I wired in my air tank and dump switches, and decided to ignore the low air light until I got around to drilling a hole for the wire. It appears that I might not need to, if I can figure out where the "passthrough" passes through.

Yep, looks like I can use the other (under dash) upfitter connection and tie into the firewall blunt cuts for what I'm needing to do. That will leave the aux passthrough circuits open for other goodies in the future.

My low pressure switch is switched ground, so I just need to find a keyed hot to tie the other end of the led into under the dash.

The linked video and discussions helped clarify the questions I had. Many thanks.

Hoping someone can help me figure out where I made an error?

I attempted to wire my baja reverse lights to Aux2. I ran Aux2 on dark gray aux connector to light gray aux connector #4 pass through. I took the 6 pin connector near parking break and cut the jumper pink/orange that goes to pins 1 and 6. I connected the pin 1 wire to pin 5 wire violet/yellow. The BD lights are wired to the red white blunt cut wire above spare tire.

As soon as I plug in the 6 pin connector near parking brake , the lights light up. However I cannot turn them off, they are on constant.

I have reviewed many of these threads and cannot see where I went wrong. Can anyone help? I hate to have to run a wire from aux 2 to the rear of the truck...but thats about where I am at currently. I removed the 6 pin connector near parking break and the lights are out at the moment.

RD/WH is constant battery power.

You should be connected to PK/OR if you used pin 1.
