Well I got my lights today and figured out the issue with not being able to separate the turn and stop light on the '24 with halogen tail lights. There is no turn signal wire in the truck's harness. The taillight has a single bulb that functions as the running, turn, and stop lights. Looking at the 24 service manual it does not appear the 24' BCM has an output for the rear turn signals and everything is done over the STOP/TURN circuit. I believe we can work around this by taping into the front turn signal wires at the BCM and running 1 wire back to each tail light and pinning them into the tail light harness.

On connector C2280f at the BCM you can tap into pin 6 and 31 for turn signal outputs and run them back to the tail lights.

I finished this up today and was able to get everything working as it should. I started by de-pinning the 2 stock connectors and the adapter harness and pinned everything into the 12pin connector that came from the adapter harness to clean up the wiring behind the lights.

I ran 1 wire in pin 1 on each tail light up to the BCM and tapped the front turn signal wires. For me it was pin 6 for the left and pin 31 for the right side.

It was a pain running wires but looks much better IMO with the amber turn signal.

I got the Raptor Reps from eBay. So far I really like them. Good build quality and they're plug & play. My truck was halogen with blis, swapped blis modules.

on your eBay lights, do the turn signals blink amber colored? Or do they blink red with the brake lights?

The turn signal blinks red with the brake light. There's an option to disconnect a plug inside the housing that turns the red turn signal to amber. I do not know if this then separates the turn signal from the brake light.

Unplugging the connector that changes from amber to red will NOT separate the functions. You must use forscan to do that.

On the 23 STX I had I was able to separate the functions without changing any wiring since it had a separate bulb for turn and stop functions. On my 24 XLT, it did not have a dedicated wire for the turn signal so I had to tap into the front turn signal wires at the BCM and run them to the tail light.
