93 Ranger that I am replacing the bed with a flat bed. I have two of these lights that I am usingLink. I have a draw-tite trailer convertor that plugs in between the factory harness at the frame and bed. Current way I have it wired:
Frame harness> plug in Trailer Harness> Factory wiring for tail lights.
Out of the trailer Harness I have 4 wires.
Green > right turn and brake
Yellow> Left turn and brake
Brown> both sides tails spliced together.
White> Not used. Grounded lights strait to Frame.
When I have the factory tail light harness and lights plugged in when I turn on a turn signal the opposite sides taillight flashes with the turn signal. For example turn on left turn signal. Factory left bulb flashes, new led left light flashes, and right side tail light flashes. Turn on the right turn signal and it will do the exact reverse.
If I unplug the factory rear light harness I get a solid signal in the dash, solid turn on the correct side and the tail light on the other side comes on.
Hooking the white wire up out of the trailer harness makes no difference.
Any ideas? I would like to get rid of as much of the factory harness as possible.
