Default Disabling clock dimming feature when turning on parking lights

Which of the 4 wires do I need to snip to disable the dimming feature for the dash clock when turning on the parking lights or head lights? I forgot, I believe its the white/blue stripe wire but wanted to make sure.

I dont have a multimeter handy at the moment, only a power tester (a "light pen"). Nothing to tell me actual voltage.

Thanks siboosted, Ill try that after I get a multimeter.
