So my 16 Ram sport is having an issue with the OEM rear led tail lights. A while back i backed into a mailbox and cracked the tail light. To my horror here in Canada i see a replacement is around $500CAD. So i found a used one locally it had the chrome surround so i colour matched it to the drivers side one and all was good.
As of this week i have had the "rear tail light fault" pop up on the dash causing the flasher on the dash to hyper flash as well as my pass mirror signal to hyper flash too.
As an experiment i plugged my old light back in and it seemed to fix the fault. Putting the replacement light back in caused the fault to start again.
It looks like a couple of the LEDs on the passenger tail light may be out. The tail light does not hyper flash but just causes the fault on the dash.
I am considering my options. Which aftermarket LED tail lights have people used to replace the OEM Led lights?
I also found this harness which supposedly enables me to fit aftermarket lights. Has anyone else gone this route?
On a side note i did check the bulb in the 3rd Brake light (its OK) and i cleaned the trailer connection and applied dielectric grease. I also did this on the tail light connectors.
I like the style of the 5th gen lights too
