i just finished doing this mod also! So I did also plugged it in slot 12 and noticed that the 3 little LED red lights wouldn’t come on. I plugged it in slot 3 like what you said, and sure enough they come on. However, what I am seeing is that they don’t turn off even after 30 minutes. Is that normal? Thanksyea about that I did it and it did not work , and that’s the info BGG DESIGNS STATES on his how to 3rd brake light conversion ?
i was looking into this mod, let me know if you get this resolved and how please. wanna be prepared before i starti just finished doing this mod also!

You need to make sure it’s pin 12 on the C2280C bcm connector and not the C2280E connector. On the E connector, pin 12 isn’t used which is why it wouldn’t work and pin 13 is for the actual third brake light itself. Here are the pin outs of the connectors:i just finished doing this mod also!

So are you guys just splicing into that parking brake wire then at pin 12 to use as the power source ?You need to make sure it’s pin 12 on the C2280C bcm connector and not the C2280E connector.

I haven’t done the swap yet but I have lot of the diagrams. When I did my hated steering wheel swap I didn’t splice into anything, ford basically made it so everything is there already. In this case, it would probably be simple as using an add-a-fuseSo are you guys just splicing into that parking brake wire then at pin 12 to use as the power source ?
Got the raptor third brake light and trying to figure this drl wire out but the op info and pics are pretty vague.
