    Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    Thanks Jimmy for the reply and information. It's good to know it can be done. I am not sure if that juice is worth the squeeze. I like an integrated option, but with aftermarket options out there it's harder to justify the time and hassle. Thanks again!

    Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    Hello. After reading through this thread I failed to find an answer on if anyone was successful on adding ttpms to a 2019 or 2020 DT. And yes, there is a 100% chance I missed that answer. Can someone please take the time to tell me if it can be done on a 2020 1500? Thanks

    Bed Lighting Kit

    Sorry, I can't say for sure as I used the OEM lights with the switch on the driver side light. It had 3 wires to it, while the passenger side had two wires. If I had to guess the switch on the OEM light is micro controlled to the bcm. So you would only need to use the led drive circuit to...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    Sorry the CHMSL circuit is only ran in the interior. Specifically from BCM along driver side door sill up the B or C pillar to the CHMSL under the headliner. So tapping there is the only option I know of for adding bed lights without programming. But my comment stands about using a relay to...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    Yep. You can verify the circuits exist in those connectors on the frame in the rear. If they do, you're in business. And yes, if you're using LED strips you still need to make the appropriate changes to programming in the BCM. For bed lights to come on when tailgate opens etc.

    Bed Lighting Kit

    If I had to guess you are overloading that cargo light circuit by wiring your LEDs directly to it. The BCM expects a certain amount of current draw, exceed that and it thinks something is wrong and shuts it down. Do you know what the amp draw is on your LED lights you wired in? On modern...

    4G Hotspot Isn't Working ---- Any advice?

    I have heard of this happening if the WIFI is left enabled and the truck is turned off and on for stops etc. Most claim it happens on long trips and they stop for fuel, food, or whatever and the dreaded "cannot connect" eventually pops up on devices. I haven't had it happen to me yet as I...

    Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

    Yep. That is what I did on my 2020 1500 DT. I didn't take a picture but relatively certain it was "B". Just find the connector with these colored wires on the circuits and that is the connector you need to pin and/or tap.

    Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

    I believe @Roman2179 is the one that might be of help with this.

    Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

    Great question, short answer is "no". But, I haven't tested at night yet. Initial day time driving it seems just bright enough for both daytime and night time driving. Edit: Here is a daytime look with the indicator LED enabled "on" via AlfaOBD.

    Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

    Added small amber LED lights for the blind spot indicators. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AF5THEY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_HW4NVSB095CSHDY8W45V?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Pinned the LED to C1 connector (the "B" location on door module) to pin7 (+) and had to tap existing wire in pin5 (-) ground...

    Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

    Successful install! Thanks to all that provided input for this mod. Also thanks to @Roman2179 for the parts and @Jimmy07 for the harnesses. I modified the non BSM LED taillight housing. No blind spot indicator on the mirrors but plan on just adding a small amber LED in the door panel or trim...

    Bed Led light wiring harness

    From the factory the cargo bed lights would be plugged into the xy670a connector for the driver side. This has the cargo light drive and cargo light switch signal circuits (pin 6 and 11) that go to the BCM. The passenger side bed light harness would plug into xy675a connector which has the...

    Bed Lighting Kit

    Maybe I missed it but I see most are tapping the cargo light in the CHMSL. I would recommend just pin into the existing circuits for the cargo bed lights in the XY670A connector near the rear of the drivers side and above the resonator? Most body harnesses have the two circuits already ran from...
