LED strip under the door panel

Hey guys I installed LED strips under the driver and passenger door panels. I connected them by removing the courtesy light bulbs and wiring the strips to the OEM wires for the bulbs. The Driver side works fine however the passenger side does not work at all. I tried reconnecting the OEM bulb and that did not work anymore as well. I went through and checked the wire as far as I could for a short circuit but the wire was fine. Also, there are no blown fuses. Does anyone know of another wire I could use for the + so the strip will turn on when the door opens? I was thinking I could tap into the "open door" indicator but im not sure of which wire that would be.

Thanks
