This is a summary of what I'm doing to connect the Ram boxes to the central locking and power the lighting inside. You can buy the replacement chassis wiring but it is way more cost effective DIY. I believe there will be 6 new wires, with the lighting wire joined when returning to the front of...

I replaced 2 harnesses to suit the ram boxes, but the main one heading back to the BCM didn't have the wires. I have got all the pieces for it but yet to make it. I am just running a separate set of wires that will follow the main chassis one, and I have the pin connectors (male and female) so...

I also installed the additional 1 quart pan. My truck is levelled, and I used 4 jack stands to get the wheels off the ground. I had no issues when I started the filling procedures, then a minute or so after I had completed them, it would not shift into park, gave the error message in the cluster...

How old is your Ram? I swapped bed's to a MFT/Rambox (from a standard 5'7'' bed) so was thinking my connectors/actuators may be faulty.

Yeah when mine is closed, there isn't much play in it, and everything looks aligned. It's like the latch status return doesn't register so am wondering if it's an issue with my connectors

Thanks for the info. I'll have a look at how the smaller door sits when closed etc. The latches definitely close so not sure what the closed signal is checking etc.

Did you ever resolve this? I have to slam my tailgate to ensure it's recognised as closed - also have a MFT.

I've done this and it worked great, and am in the process of trying to add some other wiring in other connectors - would love know how you found the correct pin on Mouser? I need some male/female pins and only have the wire gauge as per the pin out diagram above? Is there somewhere that tells...

I finally did it 4 weeks ago, fairly smooth, but some damage to some connectors from the previous owner when the bed was removed. I've also discovered my chassis wiring doesn't have the wires for the ram boxes, so I need to tap into the chassis connectors at the back and front of the truck -...

So what's a good soft rollup cover to suit a 5'7" bed with ramboxes and MFT?

I've found my main harness does not have the wires for the ramboxes. I've confirmed the boxes can be opened electrically, and traced back to the main harness - the connections aren't populated that the ramboxes need.

Swapped over and the rambox lighting/unlock doesn't work. Everything else I did is fine, looks like the previous owner or someone messed with rambox wiring coming directly out of it - had to fix connectors etc. Will do some testing on the wiring and go from there, suspect i'll need to open it...

I've just done the same but the ram box button won't open it, I have a key so not a massive problem but would like to be to not do that. The lights inside also don't work.

I'm finally doing this next Friday (April 25th) - had some issues with the multi-function tailgate which I resolved yesterday. Will let you know how it turns out. These are the wiring harnesses I got for the ram boxes - both sides, the right one is longer as it goes from below the right...

Did anyone do a complete flush or just re-fill the oil?
