Chrome LED Tail light

oldroy61 · Jul 6, 2022

Yeah I bought some Chrome LED tail lights off of Laramie and I tried to put them on my (thought it was plug and play) 2018 Tradesman , well that didn't work.
Does anyone know of a conversion wiring harness for this problem, or a work around or something else. TIA

I believe there is an adapter harness for the OEM LED conversion.

Here:

4th Gen Ram Tail light Adapter (V2.0)

Plug n play harness for the 2013 Ram LED tails - will allow you to easily add the new lights to your 09+ Ram! (if your 13+ didn't come with the LED tail lights, you'll need these adapters to hook up the lights). This is for a set (PAIR) of adapters. Simply plug one side into the tail light plug...

When I swapped out my factory tail lights for factory led tail lights, I went to the scrap yard and removed the led plug and 6 inches of wire harness from the truck and cut and soldered and re pinned connector to match my wire harness.
Went into BCM and changed all lights to LED configuration and have had no problems for over a year and a half.
The only thing I have not done is run the wire to the BCM that tells it the light is not working. Big whoop.

I'm looking for replacement LED lights for my 16 limited which has a couple of burned out leds in the OEM assembly causing the dash to indicate a "right tail light out" error. I personally would just stay with your reg $3 bulb ones and avoid all future trouble with these.

Well guys I'm still looking for tail light pigtails, albeit not to hard. So if anyone
has some for stock LEDs from a Laramie, I need them. Thanks

I purchased a set of factory adapters from @wayned87 to fit the lights then a set of retroshop resistors .fyi for what I got ******* in this mod I could have got the complete set of last fit led light kit .You will need to change the setting in alpha if you have the halogen factory lights

Thanks for quick reply reddawg67, I emailed wayned87 to see if he had pigtail or
connector. Correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't think I needed resistors if I changed it
the setting with Alpha OBD?
