The third brake light will have butyl tape all round the seal. It's a known leak spot, so it's probably just stuck to that. Maybe heat it up with a hairdryer first then lever with a plastic..... oh never mind. You just explained that while I was typing (but I'd already started, lol)

I ordered my 5th gen taillights from The Retro Shop this morning for my 2012 RAM 2500 CTD and will have them according to FedEx, this Sunday.

@@paulwarren1586 Hmmm, generally when the truck hyper flashes, it thinks that a bulb has burnt out. Do you hear any clicking from the Big Square box that is apart of the harness. Did your setup come with resistors and are they securely plugged in?

Do your rear turn signals match the front when you press the brake pedal? Watched another video from from 2020 where the turn signals were total opposite of each other.

Sorry for the late reply, I checked and no issues with turn signal and brake combo.

5th gen tail lights have blind spot monitoring capabilities, will you be adding that feature as well?
@solargarage
@solargarage Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment. hmmm, Interesting, may not be possible on my 2016 as it does not have blind spot monitoring capability so there would not be an existing system to tie it into.

Have you had any issue with “turn signal light out” messages on the dash with this harness? I ordered the basic red harness and was worried the amber would throw warnings.
