Bed lamp kit

[Gfrog6]

Do you have some tips on removing the wiring harness? I tried to remove the driver side and it was a pain. I couldn't remove it.
Would removing the spare tire helps? What tab to I press to release the wiring harness? I got all the parts and ready to install. but couldn't do it because I cant remove the wiring harness.

To get the passenger side you definitely need to at least lower the spare tire several inches, don’t need to remove it all the way.

The driver side I remember being pretty easy. What part were you struggling with? Unplugging the harness? I think I had to lookup how that unplugs. Or removing those pesky clips that hold it onto the frame? For those you just gotta really pry with a crowbar or flathead. Don’t really have to worry about damaging them because the new harness has them.

@adrixe Here’s some pictures of the driver harness. To release it you have to pull the yellow tab up (so that it is level with the red clip), then pull the whole red clip to the side.

Unfortunately no, didn't find a video on this. I followed some comments on this thread: Mopar LED Bed Lights Install?

Thank you for this! I will try to work on mine.

Adding to the post above ^. I just did OEM bed light install on my '24 Big Horn using that thread. I can't answer as to if that kit you posted will work, but I can tell you the parts I ordered. In addition to these, you will need AlfaOBD software, a security bypass cable, and an OBD2 tool.

68488851AB	Jumper Wiring, Left RAM 1500 DT (2021-2024) Mopar OEM	$43.53
68523847AA	Jumper Wiring RAM 1500 DT (2022-2024) Mopar OEM	$48.56
68618373AA	Lift-Gate Lamp, Left RAM 1500 DT (2019-2024) Mopar OEM	$40.23
68312566AB	Lift-Gate Lamp, Right RAM 1500 DT (2019-2023) Mopar OEM	$25.73

The install using these parts was very easy. Just a matter of popping the lights in, replacing a stock cable near the driver-rear bumper with one of the cables ordered, replacing a stock cable above the passenger-rear bumper (runs underneath the spare tire) with the other cable ordered, then updating settings using AlfaOBD. Takes maybe an hour, and they came out great.

You have any issues with the tailgate lock not working afterwards?

This is a very comon coupler for Ram, looks identical to the accelerator connector and others.
