Laramie Ambient Lighting Question

[Wirerat]

The ambient lighting doesn't mean much to me. I just noticed, with this truck, there is a lot.

Same here. I keep ambient lighting turned off or very dim most the time.

Don't even need the interior lights enabled either when the fire of a thousands suns beams from the touch screen at shutdown.

It does to me when I paid for it. Id have to doublecheck, but I think it was part of the packages I paid for

I noticed the other day when I turned the ambient lighting dial all the way up (until it stops), that it turns off the backlighting on the 4wd buttons.



One notch below the top setting and the backlighting of 4WD, 2WD, HIGH, LOW all light up.

Is that normal?

Does your's work like that?

I usually keep mine full bright and haven’t noticed the 4wd lights turning off

I know this is an older post, but is there a way to get the ambient lighting to stay on all the time without dimming the dash lights? I'm pretty sure I have both wheels next to my light switch.

I have a 22 Laramie, and I'm considering getting the Paragoptics kit. Does it add the missing LED lights that Ram left off the trucks? I have AlfaOBD already, so I'm good on that.

Not sure on the 21's but some Laramies I've seen in the past had the connectors but the lights themselves werent there. So they order all 3 light housings and installed them without issue. easiest way to check is to pop out the drivers air vent and check to see if the connector is taped to the harness. Myself I have a Lonestar I added the Limited dash and wanted everything functioning my truck did not have the connectors so I made my own out of a door ambient light harness the connections are the same as the dash lights. Worked perfectly.. You dont have to remove the dash to add the harness.. View attachment 103767 View attachment 103768

I robbed the ambient harness from a donor IP harness. It has 6 female terminals. I know where 5 go-- 3 for the added ambient lights in the IP; 2 for the courtesy/ambient lights under the IP (footwell), and one male for pin 20A of XY370, 21 pin (for power). So I'm clear on all that. However, I can't find a home for the 6th female terminal in the harness. Do you know where it goes? Thanks, Brent
