    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    due to a recent thing i ran into, if you have the wiring correct, make sure those taps are the right size for the wires. i was hunting a cabling issue and the taps were for a larger gauge wire, so the metal in the taps weren't making contact w/ the copper wire.

    So I grounded the black wire to the truck and switched up the combinations:
    Red to green
    Red/white to green/white

    Your 3rd brake light should be going to the green/red wire I believe. I think that's the red and white one. Not sure. But either way, brake to green/red. Black to ground. Dome to whatever you want to power it. If this doesn't work, check to make sure your taps are getting through the insulation to the copper.

    I know that's 1.5 hours for you. So let me know if another location would be better. I could also pick up the wheel for @saundern .

    This is the setup that’s working, not the previous one after I grounded to the truck. All fuses look good too.
    It’s odd because I had a Leer topper in the past and I figured it’d be the same setup, but it wasn’t.

    Nice, glad you got it sorted out. Nothing for frustrating then when something you have done before and set it up the same way, doesn't work that way later.

    He didn’t make it disappear good enough! Maybe @Bubbles can teach him a few tricks!

    Ohh shit seriously?! Looked like the hood shifted but might be angle and lighting and me having no clue what an LC100 hood looks like especially covered in snow and being white!

    If for some reason it doesn’t I’ll see him in March and could get them if needed. I’ll have my trailer.
