    I was rushing to get my truck completed before my surgery and did not quite get finished. Now I am over a month since the truck was torn apart and I am trying to figure out which wires go to the positive and which for the negative. All the cables are black and testing my memory (should have taken a picture).

    I went back to nothing at all connected to the battery except the absolute minimum to make it start. It is a 2018 Platinum CrewMax and there are 3 short black cables near the center of the truck which was the positive side. On the negative side there is one black wire connected to the fender, no brained there but I was asked by someone on the phone where the second cable on the negative went to. I just need to properly identify the cables at the battery area but apparently a Platinum is different since I looked at a buddies and his did not have much action around the positive as mine.

    Pictures will tell a thousand words. TIA

    At this point it would not hurt. What I did not look at on the other truck were the negative connections, I just looked at the positive side. Just trying to establish a baseline
