Hi,
So this weekend I finally cleared my schedule to do some minor surgery on the Ram. I do not want to take credit for this DIY because I got help from 00/RT, Ricks Ram and Benny from ALLMOPARPARTS.
I believe 00/RT did this already, but I wanted to show some pics and give part numbers to the parts needed.
So lets get started!
I believe this is only for 13-17 Rams Single Cabs since the 2009-2012 AC Outlets are not the same.
I also say single cab because my truck has all the wiring behind the dash as did 00/RT but Ricks Ram truck didn't have it and he had to wire from the inverter to the dash.
So the parts needed are
Inverter 5026486AA
Inverter Bracket 68050503AA
AC Outlet 68159295AB
Harness for Non-Power Adjusting, Airbag Seat 68203804AB
Harness for Non-Power Adjusting, Aribag Seat w/ Heated Element 68203797AC (May want to Double Check w/ Benny or Dealership)
1 Terminal P/N 7116-4100-02
A Male Spade Connector or Quick-Connect T-Tap to Get 12v Remote Power from Cigarette Lighter or Somewhere else.
Piece of 16-18 Gauge Wire about 12-15"
Crimp Tools (I Used Needle Nose Pliers)
Hook-Pick Tools to De-Pin Harness
Step 1:
Remove Negative Battery Terminal, Remove Radio Trim, Center Console ETC.
Step 2:
My truck came with the jump seat and the OEM cigarette lighter was on the dash under the radio, now with my center console, the cigarette lighter is on the console and my old one is unused so I figure I would use it as a 12v Switched remote power to tap the outlet to make it turn on. So I located it and used a male spade connector I attached to my piece of power wire to just slip it in and on the opposite side I used the terminal 7116-4100-02 that goes to pin 5 of the AC Outlet.
Step 3: Depin the Pin 5 from the OEM AC Outlet harness. That is the switched power coming from the BCM and since these cannot be flashed you are pretty much adding your 12v Remote power to turn on the inverter. Once you remove Pin 5 (or add it if your truck didn't have it) add the power wire with the terminal you added to pin 5 and put the retainer clip back on the plug and connect the harness into the 115v AC outlet and reinstall radio trim, center console, etc.
Step 4: Remove passenger side seat and remove the exiting harness and add new harness in its place. Remove the bottom flap and put the bracket on the seat with screws and bolts. I haven't done this yet but i seen where it goes, pretty self explanatory, I haven't got the screws and bolts that is why lol. Once the bracket and harness are in, mount the inverter with screws. I don't know the size but I will go tomorrow to the hardware store to get the 4 bolts to screw in the inverter to the inverter bracket. Reinstall the seat and connect the harness to the floor harness.
Step 5: Reinstall Battery Post and insert fuse in underhood fuse box if the power inverter is missing. Surprisingly my truck already had the fuse.
Enjoy your 150 watts of Glory lol.
Its good enough for me to charge my laptop, my iphone and its pretty much OEM other than the 12V remote power you need to tap into or put a switch for. And for all the people with OCD like me, its OEM so no need to have a inverter under the hood or behind the dash that should be there lol.
