And no problem getting them in, BUT when i go to hook up to the fuse block, they are always on.. no matter what block i go to.. Even with the truck off they are lit. What fuse did you use? What am i missing? Not a noob.. but this is confusing me..LOL

AND yes i looked at the install video they provided, it is garbage...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPOu653MIng&t=486s



THANKS for any help... i just feel dumb.. LOL

 

can use headlight low beam but you could use a tail spot. Or buy a harness or tap DRL

 

HEY HEY, Sorry i want them on with key on/off. On all the time, no matter what the lights are doing. Thanks for the help

 

It's four LEDs... just use an 'Add-a-Fuse' in any switched fuse slot.

 

The kit comes with a fuse "block" to plug in... That is my problem, and i found it weird. The video says use INJ, but the lights stay on after the truck is off? That is what is making my brain hurt. I even tried radio.. nope.. IDK i know it should not be this difficult..

 

If it is always on, then you are on the +12V Supply side, turn the Add-a-fuse 180 degree.
That is my guess.

 

OMFG..... REALLY, i will go try!!! LOL THANKS!!!

 

OMFG!!! I am SOOO DUMB!!!! THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!!

 

Good, But technically that is wrong way to connect the Add-a-fuse circuit because now your 2nd fuse is piggy back on 1st circuit now.
For Raptor lights maybe OK since it doesn't drawn high amps.

You want to found a fuse slot that has switched 12V, meaning that is only 12V when ignition is on,
then plug in the fuse like before, then you will have 2 independent circuits, the right way.

For reference:
Right way for Add-a-fuse
