5th gen 1500 REAR BUMPER CONVERSION

[Tim7139]

You can by a basic mutimeter or test light for under $10, and they come in handy.

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere before. I have been searching for hours for the wiring diagram for both the 4th gen and 5th gen license plate lights to no avail. I working on doing this mod on my 2014 Ram 1500 big horn and I don't want to reverse the polarity on the LEDs (since they are $60 each). But I can't find the wiring diagrams anywhere and I can't find any markings on the housing. I assume (even though that's very bad practice) that the black wire on the truck harness is the negative and the white/blue stripe wire is the positive, but on the 5th gen led lamp side I'm building my own connectors with parts from mouser ($15 vs $180 from findpigtail.com), but I don't have access to any original plugs to see the wire colors or orientation.

Any help would be appreciated!

I'm not exactly sure what you mean but what I can say is using the OEM pigtails from the website is the best option for a water tight seal and best function

Pigtails are available here - much cheaper than Findpigtails.
