You said it looks good at night, that’s an understatement . It looks amazing. Nice job.

Thanks for the video, just finished the install on my ram 1500, I also tied in a wireless backup camera while I had everything apart. Your video and especially the wiring description was extremely helpful!

Great video I watched it a few times before installing it on my ram. I took your idea but just bought the trailer end of the plug and wired the light strip to it so I wouldn’t have to cut into the factory wiring harness. All in thank you for the run down.

Thank you, brother. I just installed mine following your instructions, and i was able to have everything working correctly. Thanks again

Well done sir. Restored my confidence. 👍

Good video of the light kit and your installation! Gonna get one for my brother in law as a gift for his F-150

Thanks a lot for the video, it was helpful, just install the strip light last night on my 2013 GMC Sierra, I used to have it plugged in to the trailer connection but didn't like the way it looks so I did exactly what you did. Thanks.

They do sell 7 pin to 4 pin adapters

Excellent video!!

Sweet, I'm from around the Portsmouth Exeter area. I have spent a lot of time up your way.

I have a strip of lights that I'd like to connect for just brake lights with no blinkers or reverse lights, what wires would I have to splice it with for thag

a little tip for anyone.... if your running light does not work on the LEd strip it can be caused by your after market tail lights... i had to cut a cable out of mine cause it was causing a shorth in the circuit for the running cable. took me 2 days to figure it out.

I have mine connected to the 4 pin connector and the reverse light wired into the tail light. Problem is....running light works,brake light works, left and right signal works,but...when im on the brakes,only the right signal flashes,but not the left. They both work when not on the brakes.

Very nice ! Congrats

Great video. What is the long terms review of the light bar? Also my bigger concern is say you have a puncture, how do you lower the spare tire? Does the light bar cover the access hole do the tool?

Yes mine does the same thing it flashes orange quickly then goes to red. Not sure either why im wondering if its a safety feature of the light for more warning on a hard break? i have noticed it's only when I apply the break quickly.

Where did you connect the red brake light wire? I got mine turning left and right, but when I hit the brake. It's just fires both blinkers like I had my hazards on.

Mine did the same, I think it senses if it’s a quick signal like when your blinkers are going. So if you do a really quick break tap it will trick it. If you hold the break for more than a second then it’s red.

annoying how the orange indicators light up with the brake light. be good if it could just work like a normal brake bulb - low red and high red.

Thanks

I would take it and trade for a Ram personally... lol just kidding. Plugging this in is basically putting it into towing mode and that’s why those shut off so a trailer isn’t constantly making them go off. There might be a way to override it or an adapter for fords. Let me know if you find one!

Did you have to connect the reverse light to the taillight separately?

@GreenMountainProjects

2 жыл бұрын

the 7 pin trailer plug includes a reverse light. Just google wire diagram for an 7 pin trailer plug. Reverse should be the center pin which is pin #7. If you don't have the 7 pin plug on your truck and you just have the 4 pin plug then you will need to tap into the reverse light wire on a tail light.

I just finish installing mine, but idk when running light is on, only one line of lights turn on, not all 3 lines of lines.

I wanted a more perminant wiring location and just didnt liked the look of the wires poking out and running into the bumper. Another reason is I have a trailer with a 4 pin so I could still use that without the 7 to 4 adapter.
