You may have posted this five years ago - some of us are still watching and listening! My wife and I were able to purchase a 2014 RAM Tradesman 2500 5.7l Crew Cab 4x4 w/19,000 miles on it. I am preparing to use the existing wiring harness for upgrading brake controller, hands free phone and stereo as we own it. I still pinch myself thinking I am dreaming...

I know I'm late to the party but like was mentioned below by some, all of the trucks are pretty much wired the same. It's up to you to do the digging to find all the plugs to hook up all the accessories. You can do a lot to these "lower-end" trucks. I bought my 2015 RAM Tradesman from Carsense with only 6,000 miles on it in 2016 but I didn't pay the new dealer price. It is a 4x4 crew cab with the 5.7 Hemi and the 5.7 bed to match but I have to thank you for doing all the digging around to find all the plugs and letting us know where they are and what we can hook up to them. This definitely makes it easier for us DIYers. Thank You again for posting this information.

Frank - you must have found the same truck we did... it is 3 years later than your post but we just picked up our truck after a five hour drive to the dealership in California... 19,000 miles on it with the same layout. I still think I am dreaming... don't pinch me! I will be installing the brake controller first. I am trying to figure out if I can install hands free communication for the cell phone (that will be next). Hope your truck is still serving you well!

Informative video but this will only work on minor things like courtesy lights and such. Things like brake controller or radio options like back up cameras will need to be turned on at the dealership. They will charge you a good bit to do each one. I had a 2014 that I installed the backup camera, brake controller and towing mirrors. They charged to turn all those on in the computer. You can get around this with a product called Alpha OBD and this will let you change all of the different things to include tire upgrades and more.

I have a 2014 dodge ram sport. Solid rear window instead of slider is only real difference. Anyways. All the upgrades I was able to do it...it is now pretty much a 2020 or 2021...just more miles. Tons and tons of easy upgrades. Even took off the ram badge on tailgate and replaced with the large R A M letter emblem. Even measured where they go from an actual 2020 truck like a creeper in a parking lot when I spotted the truck.... Lol. The main upgrades on mine is a solid steel front bumper with push bar and brush guard...all one piece. And then the solid steel rear bumper. Totally makes the truck stand out in a crowd of other dodges. Also have a rear Baja rack over bed. Under rail toolbox and hard plastic and metal fold away tonneau cover as well as two swing out toolboxes inside bed. Almost complete. Just need to add linex to full bed and bottom foot of truck along body line....to prevent rocks chipping lower portion of truck since I actually use it as a truck for fun and work. Added a 2 inch leveling kit to the front...new wheels and tires and all new led exterior lighting. As well as upgraded side mirrors for towing or regular street driving. Even w all these massive upgrades...it's still 20 k cheaper than a new model. I also only have 40k miles on it. Passion project for sure to keep my mind off the last 18 months and the loss of my mother. Nothing like upgrading your truck by yourself to help out your mood in a rough time. Sorry for blabbing!!

Thanks for this info. This makes a lot of sense doing these upgrades instead of spending 1000's on a higher level truck trim. I've been wondering if these were modular b/c I noticed all the extra lights in the dash for options I don't have. I was thinking maybe they had a universal wiring harness. I have a '14 tradesman, so I have the towing brake switch you were talking about. What I don't have is the overhead map lights, which is irritating. The dome light is almost useless. I was wondering if wires were up there where the map light area is. Another one is wires for a backup cam on the tail gate? Since I have a 100% rear seat, I had to fabricate a 100% floor for mine, which I will be showing in a video. I noticed under the carpet under the seat appears to have a bracket attachment point for a 60/40 seat.

Just gotta make sure you hook up the red wire into the rear backup lights or even the 3rd light at the top since it's a brake light and backup light. Other than running though Meyers the entire way across the truck it was pretty simple there are tons of little grammates with squish squishy plastic covers that you can pop out to conceal wires throughout the body of the vehicle from the front firewall all the way to the ass end of the truck you just need to search for them.

I started to install the power inverter the wires weren't under my seat, but the wires going from the dash to the passenger kick panel were, so I made my own harness going from the kick panel to the seat, I only had to run the wire from the inverter to the under hood fuse box, but sold the truck to a friend he's been on me to help him run it.

Awesome!! Doing all these upgrades asap... I've added an adjustable led red and white flexible arm map light and added another "dome light" in the rear seat area. I noticed how dark the inside of my same cab was and also changed out the factory dome bulbs and also switched them to led like u showed. Well done! Keep digging and popping panels! Lol thanks again. I'll be putting the under dash lights first. It's frustrating to have a 40 k truck that has a dark cab. I also added a 10.4 screen to my dash by linkswell...originally got a Tesla styled one and they don't fit without cutting a metal piece behind radio..(with my year truck at least....anyone looking for a never used smtesla styled radio or other brand new parts? I have extras that I gotband either didn't need. Or just didn't like the style.. we can work out a deal! Lol) however..if u cut it. U can never put factory stock radio back in. Tesla styled screen caters more towards iPhone. My linkswell is android powered which are the phones I always get. Not a fan of the overpriced iPhone. Haha. Anyways. Happy hunting and make more vids if u discover more goodies. Oh yeah I also added cheap air bags that fit inside rear springs....I can add air while pulling camper trailer to keep truck leveled off. Gives an extra capacity of up to 3 tons with sagging the ass of the truck. The product was like 59 bucks. I added a pump and controller to it but not necessary. U can just add air just like a tire to your desired psi. Makes towing a lot safer and easier on the truck w heavier loads. Can also use if ur healing rocks or dirt or anything heavy enough to sag rear end of the truck. I recommend it greatly if u have a family camper or work trailer

I just bought a ‘12 BigHorn without the trailer brake controller. This leads me to think the wiring is behind the stock blank panel and I can just get the module and put it in. I’ll have to look into it.

Mopar/Chrysler are the best manufacturers for inter changeable parts. That is known about about them. Notice your truck also has a huge engine bay.

Your absolutely correct my friend. I had a 2011 and it was the same way and I have a 2015 and it's the same. You can upgrade everything yourself and save a lot of $$$$. Double check that connection behind the rear seat I actually think that one is for the sub and it runs under that carpet and out the cut out/ hole you found. If yours is a 4x4 you can also order the skid plates and install them.

If you buy a Bluetooth OBD connector ( I have used a FYXD as well as a OBDLink MX) and buy the AlfaOBD app (only on the google play store) you can turn on all these lighting accessories and so on... I did this to make my New LED lights all around the truck work without a fault as well as turn on my fog lights for my day time running lights... you can make day time running light the fogs (what I chose), headlights low or high, turn signals or if you have a designated light in your headlight housing you can turn it on. Look up AlfaOBD for more instructions

You already have the right steering wheel, if you change the instrument panel to the LCD version your wheel switches can be used to accesses your trucks computer. You can buy a blank key FOB and activate the installed security system. Take your truck to a shop with a good OBD-2 scanner and find a dozen things your truck has that can just be turned on. Do you have an 45RFE transmission? Is it a 4 speed w/OD? Would you like to make it a 5 speed 545RFE w/OD?

I’m not going to look through all 430 comments but there is also a software program you can buy called Alpha OBD you need the android device or tablet and a Bluetooth OBD reader and you can do almost everything A dealer can do As far as programming for example if you change your tire size and adjust the speedometer or if you add different mirrors with puddle lights or heaters you can turn on those accessories

Did you ever find the wires to the rear seat leds. Theres a connector on both sides of the truck but no wires are attached to them. In my research the wores are supposed to come up through the slit in the carpet. But I cant find them by reaching in. Are they buried under the carpet somewhere?
