Default 2021-2023 Ford f-150 Tail light Wire Gauge?

Hello everyone, I’m looking to find what’s the wire gauge for 2021-2023 Ford F-150 LED tail lights. I need to replace one of the wire that got cut while doing a replacement upgrade to led but Im not sure what the wire gauges are.I tried it with wire gauge measuring tool i don’t believe it gave me an accurate measurement and I have found multiple different answers doing research online but nothing that seems correct.
thank you for your help in advance

Without actually looking at the present wire, this is what I would suggest. Since you are going to need some wire to replace what might be damaged, take a ride to any auto supply store and ask to see 14, 16 or 18 gauge wire. What may be adequate for the present time with LEDs ,just maybe up the road something may get added and the wire for LEDs might not be sufficient to handle any addition. If you don't want to consider this , you most likely would be good with 14 gauge wire.
Sometimes the size fuse for the parking lamps will tell you the size wire they used.
