Bed lights didn’t work since day 1…..

[HOTAS]

Nothing major. My LED bed lights haven’t worked, with the push button in the bed, since I got the truck.
The passenger side worked with the interior switch.
I prefer to do stuff myself, because I can usually do it better.
A little investigation under the left rear of the truck revealed an unplugged connector.
And 4 other harness not clipped into place.

After

Success….

Definitely happened on the assembly line.
Stuff happens. Anyway, this truck is awesome, fantastic to drive and otherwise perfectly fine.

You have a spray-in liner. If that was done by the dealer, or a company you hired, there's the issue. If it was done by Ford, then they have the issue. But that's the cause.

That was my first thought, and why I started at the ProPower panel.
But the problem was way down below with several plugs and harnesses not installed properly on the frame/body bracket.
It’s all good now.

They remove the tailgate to spray, and that's when everything gets unplugged.

This is why UAW get the big paychecks.
