HELP! - Limited DRL LED Accent Light Not Working Only On Drive Side

[1BADRAMLIMITED]

Comrades, I fixed it. Breaking two wires. I didn't have to disassemble the headlight for that.

So breaking the wires you fixed your issue?

Looks like he found two broken wires.

I don't get this. My driver side lights started acting up before 3/36 expired. Top LED tube was off, marker light wouldn't light, fog light was out. They replaced the entire headlight assembly and foglight UNDER WARRANTY. Turns out it didn't fix the problem. It was found to be the body module, so an electronics problem. They replaced that and the problem was fixed. They left the brand new lights in place. So not understanding why you guys are experiencing warranty issues on LED lights. Or am I missing something?

OEM is a bumper to bumper warranty. Extended warranty is not. There are exclusions, one of which is bulbs.

Which technically, LEDs are not bulbs

I agree, but that's the reason they use.

OK, we don't need to go down that path again. We all know they don't cover wear items. Just stating the extended warranty excludes things covered by the new car warranty.

I believe there is a maxcare that covers everything the oem one does. I forget the exact name, it's kind of pricey compare to thr typical ones.
The warranties always have loopholes and the are known to deny covered repairs sometimes unfortunately.

That's how it was

Did you end up soldering them back or what was the fix? Any better pictures to show where that plug is concealed? Did u have to break a seal and creat a new water tight seal after fixing it?

You don't need to break anything. Remove the 3 screws and get access. The wires were soldered to the board.

Does anyone know the process to troubleshoot / test the body control module for this issue? I have a headlight LED out, gonna look for the wiring, could be an easy fix. But I don’t want to buy a new headlight if it’s another module.

Comrade, where is that wiring located? Did you have to pull the bumper to get to it?

You need to remove the headlight, there will be a radiator of the turn signal module on the side of the headlight. It's very simple there.

Thanks!

I wanted to follow-up on this. I worked with Ram Cares for about two months (politely but firmly) and they were able to work with my dealer to install a whole new headline assembly at no cost and at 50k miles on my 2019. I would give that a shot.

Great to know! Guess it doesn’t hurt to reach out.

This is the reason why the running lights stop working.

Comrade, you don't need to remove the glass for this, look at my answer above, you need to unscrew 4 screws.

Just as an update the issue is still ongoing. I noticed on my 22 that I have the passenger bottom out on mine. So frustrating.
