Our trucks dont use a canbus system - it uses a smart switch system. The OBD port doesnt have anything to do with how the headlights function.

I'm glad the harness method worked for you! I think the smart switch sensed the high demand and stopped the truck from cooking a wire to fire the ballasts.

Anyway, glad you got it working!
