This looks cool, Im not sure I would have gone with a esp32 solution. I like the ingenuity for sure though.

Drove 85mph from Houston to Austin and managed to get 20mpg, not bad

Agreed, my only grey area is how the LIN bus addresses the slave components. I would love to be able to provide these boards to other members if i created them. If they are all different it would be difficult to account for, although I guess i could have it respond to all addresses if that is...

This was my plan because I didnt think it would be as easy as just jumping the LED wires to a strip and removing the resistor. Im still thinking of doing it but im not sure what the benefit of it would be if this works just fine.

Just bought this, hopefully I can tap the lines to the driver and passenger and run them to the back

Where is the BCM on the ranger? EDIT: Wait is the fuse box under the steering wheel also the BCM?

Lol the trip fee will be a little too high :LOL:

The requisite night shots Looks great, not as distracting as it might seem. Plus I could lower the brightness if needed. Wife is now asking for me to try and do that back seats ? That will require running new lin bus wiring I think, unless Ford was nice and had the intention of having under...

Okay, some success to report. I have been able to successfully light a RGB strip using this board. I bought a set of modular strips on amazon HERE I cut the end off one of the included cables and soldered the RGB lines to the pads of the original LED Not my best solder job, you alos have to...

Behold.....My shitty schematic of the circuit. There are some components on the bottom left that have to to with GND referencing for the LIN bus but that shouldnt matter. I really need to look up the specs on the 3 transistors, if they are decent enough we should be able to just solder a light...

I made some progress in mapping the pins. The LEDs appear to be common power with transistor sinks. That may mean I can use a off the shelf led strip and just solder it to the pins. I might risk the $70 replacement to try.

Agreed and if it was strictly my truck I would probably somewhat settle for that but technically it's my wife's truck and that probably fails the waf(wife approval factor) ?

I see, yeah I want to control the colors from sync3 still. I was hoping to maybe tap the RGB signals off the LED modules.

That would be fine with me, that was one of the options I had considered but haven't been able to probe the board enough to do that. Is there any instructions or documentation already done for this? Yep, it's my profession so I probably blew this out of the water. I want to create a module...

Hey all, My wife and I just got our 2023 Lariet last week. I have already hardwired my radar and front/rear dashcams nad wasnt too bad to be honest. However since the first night with it I have been disappointed with the ambient light setup. Especially in the footwell and lack of lighting in...

My wife and I just paid sticker for a 2023 Lariet FX4 Jungle edition. Cant say i have ever paid sticker for a vehicle before but judging from this post we didnt do so bad. At least we will be the only green truck in a parking lot. $48,355 + Tax + TTL
