One of the “MUST HAVE” options on any current generation Ford F250 / F350 is the Auxiliary Upfitter Switch Panel. This is a rather inexpensive option when ordering your truck (less than $200). The switches are located in the interior headliner area near the front windshield. It allows for you to easily install accessories and wire them to look factory clean!
This video information will apply to the 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 Ford Super Duty F250 F350 trucks.
Hope this helps inspire you to get some accessories wired up!

The video cleared up the install for me.... Thanks for posting. I plan on putting the winch and air compressor on relays. I'll operate the relay with an upfitter switch. That way, you don't need to take up two switches for the heavy current. In fact, if you get a relay that is big enough, you could run the winch and compressor from just one relay. That would save an additional switch.

Thanks! Our build video shows the compressor mounts: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b8-ii9KW3JyzhGQ.html For wiring... I took the ARB wiring harness and stripped it down to the essentials (no switches or relays). When you flip the factory AUX switch it sends power to the compressor directly and kicks it on. The ARB harness is designed to hook to the battery with a relay that actuates it from a switch. Since the factory wiring allows 40amp drawn on 5&6 you can wire the compressor directly and strip out most of the wiring harness (much cleaner). Hope that helps!

Thanks for all the great videos. We have a 2018 with a palamino ss 1500. I'm curious if you had any trouble with the 12v charge pin and your camper? I can't figure out if it's pushing 12v off the 7 pin when the camper is connected. Do you tell the super duty it's a trailer when you hook it up? Seems kinda dumb there's no way to test if 12v is coming off of it when the camper is hooked up. Or maybe that fancy northstar has a charge controller and tells you?
@TruckCamper
@TruckCamper 3 жыл бұрын
You bet! That's a nice setup. I thought the same as you... that the 7 pin would "charge" the battery somewhat. In reality, the wiring gauge is likely the limiting factor (guessing 16gauge). We were only seeing 5amps off the connector. That's essentially useless for charging! 7 pin connector shouldn't change with the "drive mode". You could check the power input inside the camper (that's what we did). But realistically, it's a waste of time for charging duty! Here's our solution (DC Charger): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hsmHpciV3LfWiI0.html

Great info. I'll be using an ARB myself...I'll have a flatbed camper and the air compressor will be mounted in one of the diamond plate storage boxes mounted under the flatbed. You mentioned that the wire for #5 and #6 is 10 gauge...I presume you also used 10 gauge to run it from the fuse block to the compressor? You certainly wouldn't want to go thinner and there's no need to go with thicker considering it's 10 to start with...If you can tell me what you did in that regard, I'd appreciate it. Also, I'd reckon all those wires are 10 gauge, even the 25 amp? I haven't eyeballed mine yet.
@TruckCamper
@TruckCamper 3 жыл бұрын
ARB compressors are awesome! Keep in mind the single compressor pulls 40amps. The dual compressor pulls over 80 amps. So if you get the dual you'll need to run a dedicated power wire (fused) to the battery and use the wiring harness relay to trigger the compressor from the switch. 10 gauge wire should be fine if you keep the length ~ 10ft for one ARB compressor (single). You can use an online wiring size calculator to help verify gauge/length. Keep in mind with the truck running it will be pushing higher voltage (14v +) which will push more current down a smaller wires (allowing smaller gauge wiring or longer length). Hope that helps! I'm certainly not a electrical engineer but do know enough to be dangerous so do your own verifications!

BTW, I finally realized who it is you remind me so much of...River Cuomo of the band Weezer circa 1993. Maybe it's the haircut...check out the cover of the Blue Album. Great album if you're not familiar with it. Throw on a pair of Buddy Holly glasses and you'll likely draw a crowd.

Did you ditch the wire harness that came with the compressor?...it looks like you run the red main power wire to the Upfitter switch, ground the black to the chassis. However...what did you do with the two wires that are attached to the pressure switch on the unit? I noticed you said you ditched the relay on the harness altogether, I presume you didn't use that big fuse that was on the harness either. So main power straight to the compressor from the switch wire, ground to the chassis...but I can't figure how that pressure switch figures into it. I wanna get it right and not blow anything up. I'm using the unit for tire inflation only...no solenoids, no lockers. If you can describe how you wired it up I'd be over the moon.

You have most of that correct. I kept the stock wiring harness just modified it. Kept the power wire and fuse. Need the Pressure Switch and relay. Power source from Upfitter Switch. Ground to chassis. Make sure to study the wiring diagram. You'll basically need to lay out the harness and strip the unneeded wires out of it. Relay wires: Red to power wire (run to aux switch) Black to ground (chassis) Red/White goes to compressor power (already setup that way) Blue to pressure switch (already setup that way) Pressure switch: Red to power wire (run to aux switch) splice in You can unwrap the harness and remove the rest of it. Test the compressor with wiring pulled apart before you cut everything up. Then you can dress it in and install. Hope that helps and I didn't forget anything!

You need to find out how much power your pump requires... make sure the AUX switch will provide enough power (note 2 switches provide 40amps). Otherwise, you can using any AUX switch and wiring pump using a relay directly to the battery. Online wire gage calculators will provide the proper wire gage for the power draw and length of wiring. Not overly complicated but does require some homework and buying proper wiring/connectors.

Not sure what you are looking for? Switches are in the headliner. You need to tap into the wiring under the hood (not inside the cab).

Are you talking about the pass though wires? 2017 - 2020 all have wires under the battery under battery or over the wheel well cover (in the main harness and you have to dig them out) and are in the cab over the fuse box on passengers side. The are very short. On my 2021 I can't find them above the passenger fuse box. I might have to detach fuse box to find them. I have not yet removed wheel well cover to locate the ones there.

was building a 2022 and they now require the dual battery and dual alternator if you choose the upfitter switches. that was not the case on the 2021. I dont really want all that.

Good video, it just doesn't apply on the diesel trucks (my 2022 at least). According to the owners manual (page 616) there are no 25 amp or higher upfitter switches in the 2022 trucks ( for the 6.7L diesel at least). There are two 15 amp switches and the other 4 are 5 & 10 amp switches. Aux 2 & 3 are 15 amp, 1 & 4 are 10 amp and 5 & 6 are 5 amp. This info is in the owners manual starting on page 616 and ending on page 619, the manual also doesn't tell you what side of the vehicle to remove the battery tray from in order to get to the switch wires, going from the manual it looks like they are only telling you how to get to the wiring in a gas vice diesel powered truck. In the 6.7 L truck it's extremely difficult to remove the drivers side battery tray without removing the intercooler and radiator overflow tank, the passenger side battery tray removal is also a royal P.I.T.A. In the bundle of wires (16 wires) in the passenger side footwell only 2 out of the 16 wires match the color codes for the upfitter switches in the owners manual . The bundle of wires you show are not the correct wires in the diesel trucks, none of the wires in that bundle have the correct color coding as listed in the owners manual, plus you have to remove a but ton of harness tape just to get to those wires. You can power a high amperage load from any of the upfitter switches without having an overload problem, the way to do it is to wire up the proper amperage relay to the battery and then run the relay trigger wire to the upfitter switch, then wire the relay output to the load. When you turn the switch on it triggers the relay to close the switch inside of it and send power to the load. The easiest way to do this is to buy a pre-made harness from your local auto parts store, or Amazon usually has the same thing for a lower price and usually comes with free shipping. It was so much simpler to get to the upfitter switch wiring in the 2011 - 2016 trucks. owners manuaowners manual

Interesting! Several have commented saying the diesel is the same and others that it is different. It would be sad if the diesel has less amperage wiring (doesn't make any sense). We love being able to power the ARB air compressors directly from the factory wiring (40 amp). Thanks for sharing!

The change must have occurred on the 2022 models. My 2021 F350 6.7 power stroke shares that fuse block in that same location. Upfitter 1 is also 25 amp. brown with green trace

Interesting. Do you have any wires in the engine compartment? I'd be surprised if all the wires are inside. I've heard that a couple of the switches may have wires in both locations. Appreciate the feedback!
