Appreciate the vid, adding two sets of lights for my snowplow.

Made my day easier thank you very much

Thank you i was looking everywhere

This video helped me and I thank you. I'm sure you can order a plug that will plug right into that with labeled wires and I'll call the dealership Monday to find out. However, I have to say Ford is so much easier to hook these things up on. Ram and GM really make you work for if but Ford says hey look it's all right here!

No problem!

Do you have the relays and fuses in your fuse box under the hood located on the driver's side?

Will this work on a 2018 Chevy 1500 LT Z71? Ive got 3 different lights I’d like to install on the truck but need a good solution for the Aux switches and this is the one I want but everyone says it’s not going to work.

I have 2018 Silverado. Back up lights and back up camera are on all the time. Any suggestions ?

Mine not a work truck but I have a 2018 duramax Z71 and my truck comes with the exhaust brake and down hill assist , and the switches I got are out of Order and don’t have the down hill assist but when I plugged it in everything worked in the right order and lights up so I thought it would work but when I go under the dash to see what aux switch controls what nothing is happening. Is it not gonna work or is there’s some fuses I can look for or how do I even see if it’s set up for it !

Random question do these trucks have an aux cord for an MP3 player or straight from the headphone jack out your phone?

Do you happen to have a video of the installation it self. or perhaps a picture of the connections behind the panel?

No video of installations but that junction box in the video is what it looks like when you remove the cover panel, hope this helps.

I'm not the smartest when it comes to electrical work. That being said, I hooked up a positive wire up to one the pins and a ground wire to the battery. ( from my LED bar) it was always on. No matter whether I had the switch on or off. Thoughts?

@BR-cm3gi

Sounds like you wired it to a constant 12v pin, use a multimeter to find the correct pin that turns on and off with the switch. And I would recommend not to wire the ground to the battery, clean bare chassis ground is always best.

Negative off lights to a clean chassis ground then positive to a relay or directly to the pin of your choice depending on what switch you want to hook them up to.

Hey Bobby, I'm trying to do this same set up on my 15' Silverado LT and went and noticed in the fuse box under the hood I don't have terminals for the upfitter fuses. Spots are there but no connection. Did you end up getting a whole new fuse box or just got lucky?

They should be in the fuse box itself, if I remember correctly they looked like relays and you would have to swap them around to get always on or ignition power. I would think if you have the switches, you should have the same fuses there.

If you use that j box, won't you be going through the BCM? Or no? And yes the one person is right there is a plug in pigtail for that. The BCM being so finicky I'm Leary of going that route.

Those pins provide switched and constant 12v for any accessories, you should have no problems as long as the accessories are installed correctly. I do have them wired on a relay, using the switches as a remote to turn on power to the light bars. I went this route because I did not want any draw on the battery with the truck turned off.
