    12” freaking out

    Ok got my truck back... Less the new transmission that is now unknown eta ugh! Anyway my problem seems to have gone away. Maybe it was an update or something and it settled itself out... Or it was the cursing and the threat of lighting it on fire that fixed it 😂😂😂

    12” freaking out

    Exact same problem for me... My truck is in the shop for a transmission replacement. But I'm past the radio warranty. Hope it's a bad update and will be fixed. Anyone else have this problem and a fix?

    Full Screen Android Auto Coming Soon?

    I've been an Android user from the first android phone... But I honestly haven't been happy with android for a while now... And after seeing a iPhone paired to my truck and carplay filling up my whole screen I'm thinking it's time for a change. Going to miss that back button though 🤣🤣🤣

    Bed Lighting Kit

    The ground because depending on kind of switch you wouldn't want it with power. Here's my lights and switches. For the last week of using them every morning at work I've just gotten into the habit of flipping the toggle switch to turn on and off... But if I accidentally leave it on or it...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    Bed Lighting Kit

    If you use the cargo light as a power source then the cargo switch (on the dash) is the only thing you need... Any other switches become redundant :) I mentioned the throw because it can be a pain to adjust a small throw switch to open... Small variations can cause it to be closed/on if not...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    The only way I know of to power the bed lights are: Taping into the cargo light Taping into the trailer constant power circuit. I don't know and I don't think there is constant power in the taillight circuit... But idk lol *edit* Those magnetic switches may work for a while... So if someone...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    I've read the whole thread... But admit that I skimmed some of it... And I don't recall seeing anything about powering from the tail light harness. Those magnetic switches will not work for the load of a circuit...depending on amperage they will melt or stop working after some use... They are...

    Tapping into hitch harness

    Wow!!! You guys are... Really helpful thanks! I'll give myself and anyone else with the knowledge and tools some advice. I am by no means an expert! But I do have the tools and supplies: probably 6 different styles of crimpers right up to 000 gauge, 4 different kinds of soldering irons...
