Cab clearance lights

My cab clearance lights have stopped working. I swapped harnesses from the over head console in my 96 RAM 2500 with the overhead console from my 95 gasser that had the digital outside temperature gauge/compass. I replaced the harness from the 95 which plugged right into the 96 harness at the junction box under the steering wheel. The cab lights were not part of that original harness as it only had 3 wires, all of which are accounted for at the overhead console light. I have checked for a loose connection under the dash that I may have knocked. Checked the fuses too. I don't have a manual but am guessing the feed comes from the headlight switch & must come up the passenger windshield pillar as it is not on the drivers side one. Any ideas? Thanks

The feed does for sure go up the drivers side pillar.
The factory add on light package which were put in after delivery had a wire that hooked into the fuse box on the end of the dash but that is all i can remember right now about it.

It was on the old harness. Hooked it back up & the cab lights came on. Had to determine which wire was used for it & wallah connected to the new harness & lights on agian. Thanks I am jealous of the 71 Duster 340. I had a 70 Duster 340 4 gear, posi rear end which would be a great toy these days.
