Dude, same here! though.. Mopar tech told me about that error before I installed, so i'm grateful for that.

I read somewhere that the dealer may be able to program the bed light kit where they dont come on everytime you lock unlock. any word on that?

Thanks..

Maybe, not sure I've seen where someone has had it done, just talk of being able to. And then whether or not dealer would may be another matter also

update on bedlight problem dealer had it for 4 hours flash did not work charged me 120. dollars for trying and said they would have to uninstall and reinstall for 320 dollars i then called mopar parts and asked for tech support and they said only for dealers not the general public. 320 dollars for 2 wires seems crazy i think

I would fight paying all that, it's their fault they couldn't figure it out. My dealer wasted three hours trying to flash it and the lights didn't work and they charged me nothing. The instructions in the kit are WRONG. Tell them to check pin locations, there's nothing wrong with that harness it's two whole wires
