Everything is connected to a network of sorts, making little mods like this a much more complicated proposition.
You might consider a membership with Alldata for one year. It used to be around $19-20 for a year for one vehicle. You could then check out the wiring diagrams. I would bet it's driven off the backup switch, since that would be the simplest solution.
