Need help on wiring up a used 2019 Ranch Topper

[klmcmahon13]

I went out of state to pick this topper up and I have no idea how to tackle this. I understand the third brake light and dome light but what I’m drawing a blank on is the module attached to the strut. Best guess is a switch for the dome light when the hatch opens but I have no idea how to tie all these loose wires in and have everything work.

Is this the switch?

See this video and see if it helps.

Otherwise, what is the make of your topper? Have you checked their web site for wiring instructions?

That’s the wiring for the brake light. That’s all I can figure

It’s a “Ranch Sierra” topper and they don’t offer any diagrams on their website. I seen that video but he doesn’t have the switch on his gas strut for the window to tie in

I would assume that the switch on the gas strut would be wired in series with the light inside the topper so that when the window is opened, the inside light comes on.
