It looks like the orange wire is power from the courtesy light circuit fuse.
There's power at the bulb all the time.

The white wire is the ground from the 2 door switches and/or from the headlight switch when you turn on the dome light.

It would be a good idea to obtain a shop manual with wiring diagrams.
