i hope the wiring issue didn't harm the led modules or bcm FET circuit. I think that is a long shot if no dtc's are appearing now.

forscan?

BCM 726-31-01 0302 0112 0Cxx

BCM 726-39-01 1194 0101 00xx

Plug in a different module in the footwell just as a test?

Just throwing guesses at it from here.

So I knew I did everything right. Today they work fine.

Lol

Thanks for the help though guys! I'll be installing this little by little as the days pass. Today, were enjoying the last beach day before the kiddies go back to school!

Cheers!

Oh you have no idea how happy I was.

I'm an HVAC mechanic, I'm sure I mentioned that earlier - I'm used to wiring and repinning with how computerized equipment is these days, so I'm confident there.

Not sure what changed from yesterday to today.

Now that I know my subharness/BCM disconnect works, I can make the rest of the harness and install the easier lights before I tackle the more complicated.

Ps: I'll be vacuuming the truck after the beach today. We drive ok every weekend and you give up trying to keep sand out until the end of the season lol

Glad you got it going I will be tackling the door and driver and passenger seat lighting next weekend adding pins to the door harnesses and making the wire loom for that circuit not looking forward to adding pins to the front door harnesses very little room to work but the payoff is worth it.

The next few weeks are busy for me but I may do some after work here and there!

Happy Labor Day to my fellow union brothers and sisters!

I'm home from work today, so in between icing my neck, I've been trying to do what I can.

Cup holder done and glued up. I have to clean it up slightly.

Driver side harness is 90% completed. Just have to put connectors on - it's all taped up with Tesa tape.

Passenger side harness will be next. At some point I'll run them and install the cupholder, footwells and if I have time cut the passenger side console light in the dash.

Got all the drivers side done (front and rear footwells and the cup holders)

Almost done with my passenger harness - I'll do the other three non door lights in a bit.

Ok all done minus the doors.

Dremel is the way to go for the console strip! Thanks to Lucas for the layout idea!

I think the dash took less time than the cupholder lol

For whatever reason I can't get pics to upload today.

Big thanks to Flsdiver, Starliner57, 2016BoostedGreyGoose and Lucas8888 among others! You guys paved the way and made this a day and a half project for me so far! I know the doors will be far more time consuming, but I live for this kind of stuff!

Ps, if anyone wants to know - the pin and connector kit I got worked great! I posted it earlier in this thread.
