I recently got a 2019 RAM 1500 Classic, Tradesman (5.7L HEMI with 3:92 rear end) and swapped out the stock taillight and third brake light housings for LED's. I also put towing mirrors on (w/turn signals). No problems with the tailights until I upgraded the EVIC gauge cluster to a 7". Now I get "Parking Lamp out" when I hit the brakes, or use the turn signals (only when the lights are on though - no issues at all with turn signals or braking when lights are off). So, after watching YouTube videos, I purchased AlphaOBD ($49.99), OBDLink MX+($119), & the security bypass cable ($55) ... roughly $225 in all and, was able to activate the turn signals on the mirrors, but can't get rid of the "Parking Lamp out" warning. Changing only one thing at a time, I tried a number of combinations with the CBC rear LED present items ... from all present, to only the taillights, only the stop lights, only the turn signals, or combinations of them and nothing is working. I'm running out of ideas. The tailights came with built-in resistors, but obviously they did not work, or I wouldn't be getting error messages, but I get the errors whether I have the LED present on or off in AlphaOBD. Somebody has got to have dealt with this as well ... HELP!

Hey, Harley Harrold, quick question about our account profiles ... how did you get the "Military" band on your profile. I am also prior USAF (TSgt, Heavy Avionics, 7-Level) and would like to display that as well.
