Hello everyone. I have a 2016 Ram 1500 with the older touch screen smaller stereo. I just got the 8.4 model RA4NA and bought a wire harness, HVAC module and single zone cluster from people on here. I just went to install it all and everything plugs in great with one problem. The one end of the wire harness plugs into the HVAC module on the far right under my dash, and the other end has 2 plugs on it. The one smaller plug fits great into the back of my single zone bezel, however the other larger plug that is on this same end does not fit into the plug on the HVAC bezel. Am I doing something wrong here? What do I need to fix this? I bought this harness off a very trusted member on here who makes many of these for others, so I'm trusting he did not sell me the wrong harness. PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!!

The other plug shouldn’t plug into the bezel. It should plug into the white mating plug that used to be plugged into the original hvac bezel.

You are entirely correct and thank you. I feel very stupid now. I should also comment that this wire harness got delivered very quickly, and it looks VERY well built. I am very happy with it. Another great person on this site helping others. Thanks again guys!
