2021 RAM 1500 LIMITED HEADLIGHT ISSUE

[gbordelon2000]

21‘ Ram 1500 Limited. Right headlight has two ‘’Strip-lights’’ above and below the main headlight lamps. They are not working. Any ideas?

If you can remote start do it and see if they come on then. If not they are most likely bad and you need to see the dealer (assuming you're still under warranty). You could also pull that headlight and check the wiring at the harness (hard to see but not impossible with it on the truck) see if it got chewed on. You could also check for moisture if you go that route.

This is why I went halogen, I changed the front to night edition headlamps and the back to led. Over the past 15 years or so I seen too many vehicles with defect led headlamps... all manufacturers, they're probably $1000-1500 each for a install/replacement. I feel better replacing the bulbs with with lastfit led bulbs rather than deal with led assemblies headlight headaches. If deemed bad you can replace it yourself it's pretty easy and can be programmed with alfa obd if needed. Take the grill off as a assembly bc the panels below the lights on each side has locking tabs that break easy so I took it off as one piece so it wouldn't become damaged.

Prob busted. A new one is like 1200 because it's a sealed unit.

If you want to try replacing the board you can get a new board for I think $450 per side or both sides I forget (after market). You would need to crack open the unit and re-seal it though.

Does the blinker on that side work?

I happily purchased my Bog Horn with halogens knowing I’d go Lasfit route. Sure glad I did. My 4th gen had the LED package and luckily I made it 142k miles without the full assembly going out. I did have a few diodes on each burn out and it annoyed the heck out of me.
