Thank you for your response.
yeah, I did search and saw a topic talk about this for 2016 ES, saying that the Negative is black-white; the Positive is light brown.
And I also saw some other on Youtube, saying that the Nagetive is grey; and the Positive is red...
that why confuses me a lot. I do not have the test machine/ tools to check it. So in case I do wrongly, anything happens to my vehicle?

Thank you.

In order to complete a job such as this you require some basic tools. A multi meter cost about $20.00, wire cutters, shrink tubing, and electrical tape. Wiring anything incorrectly would cause damage... Good Luck...
