Default Aftermarket stereo

I'm looking to install an aftermarket stereo in my 2001 RAM 1500. It has the steering wheel controls and the stereo I purchased has built in support for resistive type swc. I just don't know which wire I need to connect to. I looked at a installation guide for a swc adapter and it says to connect to a red/black wire in the steering column but there has to be a wire at the radio connectors for the factory radio to work with the swc. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Ps: the radio is a Jensen VX3010.

Grab the 01 service manual from this thread. Wiring diagrams are in there. I assume the controller for the SWC plugs into the factory harness somewhere???

I think I might have found the correct wires. Won't know until after work. Thanks.
