@Toddman34 Why does this become a "Ha ha" issue for you?

A bit of conflicting info out there, but it appears the correct part number for the switch with auto headlights + fogs is AL3T-13D061-CA.

My post from page 1 of this thread. Part numbers with fog lights. The numbers may have changed for the newer trucks. Mines a '10.

Weird. That was from the invoice i had. And i have fogs. Either they changed the numbers or the parts guy pulling them picked up the wrong one.

I found one on Ebay for $20. When it arrives we'll see how it works. It's used )prolly off a total) and comes with the wiring pigtail, I'll compare the harness to mine & see if it's the same.

I visited the dealer, again today. While there was some success, I didn't get the Gold Ring!
The tech programmed the new code into the BCM .... he had to go through each block and manually enter all of the codes. After doing that, nothing seemed to change, at which point, I had him change a code in the ICM (Instrument Cluster Module or whatever, actually, it was the IPM (?) on his scanner). The change, allowed the "info. programming of the delay", using the "reset function", however the A/L still stayed on.

After more research, I found another code block, which looks like it needs to be modified, as well. I can't blame anyone, but myself, for overlooking that!

While, I've learned some positive/constructive things, I've also learned, if you don't get things right, it won't work!

As I learned a long time ago, "You can't make any mistakes, if you don't try anything". ... and then, hopefully, learn from your mistakes.

If anything, I am now rooting for you to get it figured out! You've put more time into this little mod than most!
