2014 ram 1500 express conversion to laramie dash problem

[bobert5261]

So i decided to swap a 2015 laramie 1500 dash into my 2014 ram 1500 express. It went ok except i didnt realize the laramie was a knobe shift and mine was a column shift. I was able to get around that with unpinning the pins and rewiring them into the harness. My problem now is that i cant get a oem brake controler to work with the harness. They changed the harness in 2015, so i tried to use a 2015 tow module with no luck. Yes its already all programed with a alfa obd2. I am thinking it wont communicate with my 2014 body control module. Any thought? I have been trying to find a 2014 ram 1500 dash wiring harness with column shift, dual climate control and the 8.4 screen with no luck.

Can't help you with your problem,but i can see you having issues down the road with your key,if you keep that mess of keys on your keychain. Get rid of all the keys except the one needed to run the truck, it's a proven issue that a heavy keychain on the keyed trucks will cause you issues eventually

Yep already aware of that, i run a quick disconnect on my keys. That way i can just put the key its self in ignition other ones in tray
