I don't see a 2017 manual for the 1500, is the 2016 "Close enough". If not Haynes or Chiltons is there something else to look for?

Will the Service manual even cover wiring options? I need to figure out where/how to connect the light wiring for the running boards.

You might be better off with an investment in an AllDataDIY subscription.

I think you can get it down to about 20/yr and on our RAMs it has access to the electrical diagrams and basically the complete service manual on the site.

You may want to look into AMP engineering. They make a nice kit that plugs into the DLC to control electric running boards and lights.

Sorry for late reply, missed the notification.

I love alldatadiy. I got the 5 year subscription and after a couple days of traversing their content I got another 5 year sub for my wife's 2015 cherokee

It has everything you will ever need to troubleshoot and service. TSB's, wiring diagrams, fluid types/capacity, troubleshooting steps for codes etc.

Navigating the site was a little weird at first but if you get lost, the search bar actually works really well in getting you where you want to be.

Digging up this old thread..

Does that alldatadiy have the complete service manuals for the 2500? They really don't specify what they have when I enter my truck. If so can you down load it (or parts of it) as a PDF?

I had a PDF copy of the manual and my hard drive died the other day and I lost everything! Ugh, don't forget to back up your data people...
