I'm guessing that you are right, but a test light or meter would tell you for sure...Mark

Yea true but the harness is in the truck but no dash or nothing is hooked up .motor harness isn’t in either just trying to wire some in side lights while there is nothing in truck.I would think orange is hot but thought maybe somebody new for sure thanks anyway

Behind the dash, solid orange is headlight on hot, meaning hot only when light switch is on.

Sounds good I’ll b taping in the orange wire on the ashtray light .Thanks

If you look over the harness, usually around the heater control/radio area, there is an orange duckfoot connector with unused holes. You can tie in there using bullet style connectors.

Will be hot anytime dash lights are on, so when parking lights or full headlights are on.
