    SOLVED!

    my truck is still under warranty so I have no issue bringing it in, just wondering if there is a switch somewhere controlling them.

    I bought replacement LEDs and they aren’t working either; seems strange...

    That’s what I would think also, done lights all work and the switch is working with the doors...

    Have you checked the menu settings for your truck? Maybe there is an on/off setting...

    Didn’t realize the LEDs were polarity specific, I’ll try popping another one in and try hooking it up both ways. Thanks!

    How are you trying to turn them on? The only way that I know of to turn them on, is to click the unlock button on the remote.

    They’re suppose to turn in when the doors open? Or when the alarm unlocks? Tell me more if I’m wrong here...

    I’m using an aftermarket alarm... I wonder... I’m going to try the factory remote and see what happens.

    Dude... so now all of a sudden they’re working... so either...
    A. They have a sensor and only turn on at night and I’ve only been working on them during the day (it’s dusk now)
    B. I’m a shmuck and wasn’t trying to turn them on with the disarm
    C. I needed another beer

    Either way, thanks for the simplest answer possible! No dealer for me, now let’s see if I can get the LEDs to work without cooking the ECU like the previous post linked to.

    Thanks man!

    I'm glad they are all working. They must be activated by the sensor and only would come on at night. Good to know. :cheers:

    It was easy to swap, harder to turn them on. LoL.
