Okay boys, what did he do wrong?
So on this GMC K2500HD I bought the owner had a LED back up light installed, they used those things you put on the wires and then squeeze shut with pliers and it saves you time as it is quick, anyway...

Those wire taps tend to break about half the stranding on the wire into which they tap. I spent a while removing all the one the previous owner of my vehicle used. The wire stranding on every wire near a tap was broken and severely corroded. I had not had issues at that time, but it was just a matter of time.
Yes, I was not impressed to see it, never a good idea to use those really, anyway I kinda figured the fact he had hooked into two coloured wires was wrong, to me you should always have the ground going to ground somehow, so when it dries up a bit I will get under and try taking the black wire off the light unit and attach to a good ground.
