    aint no problem. between wiring up my new truck speakers and tweeters, and trying to finish the back yard so i can lay sod in the next week or so, i barely got time to sleep. I'll run to autozone at lunch if the relay is a 4prong and swap in a 5prong and see what that does. Thanks!

    Just looked at the order I made from ebay... yup, all 4prong relays. I'll be going to autozone at lunch for sure and pickin up a new 5prong. I am almost positive this is the problem. Will keep everyone posted.

    Vatozone's 5prong relay is just BARELY bigger than the factory :flipthebird:

    Atleast I picked up some Dark Knight Chrome kit.

    So the relay doesn't work? What relay did you get? If you got the EP27 relay, that's the wrong one. You need a different one, I couldn't find exactly which one it was though.

    autozone's doesnt work. its slightly larger and wont fit in the spot. I just got back from the stealership and put the 5prong in. nothing. Still just running lights only, no reverse, no signals, no hazards. This is pissin me off. Bout to sell it and just get a White Lightning:Grenade:

    and i know its not the 12v source cuz i just ran a wire the length of the truck from the battery to the 12v red line and thats all i got, running lights. no reverse, no hazards, no signals.

    :Grenade: I would take a meter and check that 4pin. I hate to hookup a trailer and have that issue.

    Vano can you post a pic of the wires coming off the light bar? I agree with nick. Check it with a volt meter

    i thought i checkd my 4pin and didnt seem to get a right reading, so i just swapped it out over the weekend to a brand new OEM 7pin setup. I atleast get running lights, so i'm thinking it works but iono. What readings should I be getting? VM set to VAC correct? I'm novice when it comes to reading/using it. Thanks!
