Installation video of Sequential turn signals on my 2018 Ram 2500. We ran into an electrical issue but added a relay for the fix.

Wow your video was the only one I could find about adding the relay to make the dome light work with led strips!! Thank you so much brother!

Discovered that if you use the bed lighting wire, to drive the white LED's, that you don't need the relay. It is white with a brown stripe.

in the olden days we use to use a resistor👍👍

Want to send a thank you to Goodwin Customization. We may have found an alternative solution to a problem, but would never have done so without their pointing us down a path.

Hey man do you have a link or something for this? I’ve been trying to find this set up. Wanting the amber turn signal but the white running

Do you have to connect the turn and amber runnung light to the relay as well?

So I added lights like these on my 2018 F-150 but there the OPT7 Sidekick ones & whenever I have my truck on & idling the turn signals/hazards flicker every few seconds but when I have the key in the ACC position they work just fine & no flicker. I did tap/splice into my mirrors for the turn signals. I don’t the have the running lights hooked up yet either. Any clue what could possibly be going on? Any feedback on that would be great!

You used the door switch wire to trigger the relay, do you remember what color this was?

@stevefournier8910 3 жыл бұрын

We used the yellow wire with purple stripe to trigger the relay coil. When you unlock the truck with the key fob, the relay buzzes like the voltage is right near the switching point. Did you use the same wire to trip the relay?

@goodwincustomization2493 3 жыл бұрын

I don't remember off hand what color I used to trigger the relay. I think I mentioned it in the video. I do get a buzz when the running board lights go off on there own.

So I tapped into the cargo light, white /tan wire, but now the cargo and led lights won't come on . I. Assuming I need a 12v relay or 6v relay to boost up the voltage??

@goodwincustomization2493 3 жыл бұрын

When I installed them without the relay the running board lights and the dome lights still worked. I'm thinking the dome light wire isn't making the connection if it's not going on. I used a 6v relay and the dome light acting as the switch for the running board lights.

@@goodwincustomization2493 I solder the connections. When I realized and the lights weren't working I disconnected the battery again and reconnected the cover light came back on but as soon as I unlocked the vehicle the LED strips flashed on and then off, and stayed off. Will a relay work for this problem? What kind of relay should I be using?

@olivernelson9302 Жыл бұрын

Why did you use a 6v relay instead of a 12v relay? Where did you connect the relay?

@rosatrevino2954 7 ай бұрын

Do they stay white when driving or do they go straight to the orange color when u start driving?

@goodwincustomization2493 7 ай бұрын

I wired them, so they are white to light up the steps and then they shut off. The Amber's go on with the turn signals. You can wire them to stay amber when driving.

My strip won't completely light up on signal flash, so I disconnected the signal wire. When I signal the light only traveled halfway up the strip.

@@goodwincustomization2493 Sorry to be a pest. I found them once on Amazon, and chose instead a DC-DC voltage converter with 3-11 volt input and 12volt output. The lights started flashing over 11 volts. I have tried to find them again on Amazon, and am not having success. If you could send me a link I would be thankful.
