02SOMWS6 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I also got my switch, going to put it in the same time I get the wiring from Phil... Lights came today, I like them but not sure it's exactly what I'm looking for. The mounting plate bends a little on the sport bar, so the lights sit at a bit of an angle. Might be able to shim them straight, or move them more towards the center. Or I might use these as cargo/reverse lights and hang them under the bar. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are built with the same specs as shown in the video by Tinkering Fox. Harness is labeled for easy installation! Thanks to @Tinkering Fox for collaborating with me on this project!

I just made my harness following TinkeringFox’s video and my switch doesn’t do anything. No light on the instrument cluster and the switch doesn’t change to amber. Can anyone confirm this? I’m assuming the BCM isn’t configured for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Uh oh!!! I got my switch and installed it. It works perfectly. Lights and backlighting all work like factory. I ordered the harness from Phil. I hope it works!!! Im not concerned if the switch lights up a different color or if the light on the dash comes on, if it even has it. All i want is for my light bar actually come on at least with the long press. It would be nice if i could just tap the button though.. maybe someone else could confirm if the 2014 LTZ Z71 even has that ORL icon on the dash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESMD Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Installed my switch and harness this evening and noticed two things:1.) Switch doesn't activate when in Park. Truck has to be out of Park in order for the switch to work.2.) Switch will also turn the headlights and parking lights on too, just like if you press the fog light button. Overall, I'm happy with it. The instructions were perfect and it was great having the pre-made harness. On a side note, I do have an extra switch (blue color) because I accidentally ordered two. I did plug it in and test it and it does work. If anyone is looking for one, send me a PM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tleesmith14 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Damn that’s some crap about not working in park. I can understand the other lights coming on but why not allow it to come on in park? Wonder if you can set the parking brake and trick it?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Is there anyone else on here with a 2014 that has done this? Cburge95, do you have the lights using a relay or are you just trying to run it directly off of the switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cburge95, do you have the lights using a relay or are you just trying to run it directly off of the switch?I haven’t tried it with anything hooked up to it yet. I wanted to test to see if it’d even work before running all the wires out underneath the hood to my light bar. Because theoretically it should supply 12v to the yellow wire when the switch is depressed right? Even without anything hooked up to it?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgamboa Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 For you guys with 2014/2015 or anyone else that this doesn’t work for (due to BCMs not being programmed to output these triggers), please be patient with us. We have an alternate method that allows you to use the OEM headlight switch to still drive whatever lights you want, but uses a different method.We are working very hard between our day jobs, family, etc...to bring you these amazing mods So please be patient with us.
