I am about to hook up a brake controller for my trailer and need to tap into the cold side of the stoplight switch.

I think I have found it and just need confirmation from someone with more knowledge.

Please see the attached photos.

If this is the switch am I correct to assume that one of the purple wires is the cold side of the switch?

Thanks for the help.

I got it figured out. It is not the purple wire.

I cut a bit of insulation off the white wire and used a test light to find I had power when the brake pedal was depressed.

I then spliced my red wire from my brake controller into this and all is working as it should.
