Mopar LED Bed Lights Install?
- Thread starter Tranzella
- Start date
Were you able to figure out your problem? What permissions were you talking about on android? I am waiting on one of the harnesses to get delivered then I am going to give mine a shot to install. I also have a 23 mine is a Laramie not a limited though.
Decided to let me dealer do the install since they have to program it anyway. Appointment is Monday. Funny story they originally quoted me 5 hours because they had to drill through the body. When I told them I didn't do the Mopar retrofit option and showed them the parts, they had a service tech come out. He was intrigued and looked at the parts and quoted me an hour labor. Let's hope it all works out well Monday!

If they haven't run across that situation yet, they don't know there is the new way to add them. I was at the dealer yesterday, and talking to the write up, they had no idea that the rear window leak had a new extended warranty. They knew about the third brake light, but hadn't come across a rear window, since the extension.
Took the dealer 45 mins... probably could have done it myself but an hour labor, I feel it was well worth it. Love them and appreciate whoever found the parts to make it work. Dealer was amazed Mopar doesn't just sell a kit this way.

Nope. I got all the wiring installed no problem. Tried again today. Cannot get AlfaOBD to connect to body computer through bypass cable + MX+. It connects to bluetooth when MX is connected to bypass cable but fails to connect to body computer. I connected OBD link app and that works fine to clear codes, so it is either the cable or some other issue. Gonna have to bring to dealer unless there is someone around Minneapolis that can give me a hand.

Ordered a new bypass from Amazon and now can connect and turned on the three settings and lights work. DO NOT BUY EXCTOOL cable. Ordered this one and it works fine.

Is it pretty self explanatory, once you look under the truck?
It really is an easy install. Sorry to link to a different forum, but here is a write-up i did on my install with pictures.
OEM Bed Lights
My truck didn’t come with the bed utility group so I don’t have the lights. I’m waiting for parts on order but I bought the two lights and 2 new harnesses that make this a true plug and play installation. Of course I will have to use AlfaOBD to enable them. When I get the parts I will try...

That will vary by dealer. I called just to have trailer lights turned on, for a Jeep once. Prices went form $50-$150, from different dealers. Just call and ask, they should tell you over the phone.

Thank you for the link! Outstanding photos and detail.
So I bought the infotainment obd genie and it did not turn on the bed lights. I’m assuming that’s only for the other OEM kit?

What kit did you buy? Can you provide a link?
Yea that I’m not sure on. There might be something different since you have to repin some wires at the BCM. With the other OEM kit.

To activate this set up, I bought the bed light obd from infotainment and also had to purchase the bypass module. Worked perfectly.

This chart is SPOT ON for 2020 Laramie. Only saw a couple 2020’s in this thread so thought I’d add to them. Just ordered and installed part numbers from this and work like a charm!! Only took me 2 hours, programming and all (laptop had to update
) I have blind spot monitoring, LED tails, no RamBox and park sense. This 1000000% should be the “kit” Mopar sells. Dude that posted this is a LEGEND! $157 shipped and BOOM, done.
