Simple problem, maybe not so simple solution.
My truck did not come with turn signal mirrors even though it has the $1,075 Power Equipment Group option. I inspected the 22 pin connectors and confirmed that they are wired for the turn signals, the clearance lights, the power functions, the heat, and even BLIS even though my truck does not have the appropriate tail lights or modules for that.
So I bought a set of aftermarket lights knowing full well that all of the "features" wouldn't work for about $380 vs spending nearly $1.5k on some OEM mirrors. Specifically got these: https://www.americantrucks.com/supe...s-smoked-turn-signals-rmx-f25017f1h-p-fs.html
The only features my truck does not have that these mirrors do is BLIS.
So I plugged them in and everything works except the turn signal. (Power is fine, heat is fine afaik, and the clearance lights even work.)
The only problem I have is the turn signals will not activate.
I can't seem to find access to any wiring diagrams for the truck (or any 2020+ for that matter) online, but what I found for other years (2017+) is that Pin #7 on the driverside is supposedly the Turn Signal Positive.
So I put a multimeter to it, found a good ground, verified voltage on other pins, then turned on the truck and turn signals/hazards. 0 volts to Pin #7 even though it's wired. Either I'm checking the wrong pin, don't understand how the signals work due to lack of electronics knowledge, or there is a missing link somewhere else in the truck.
Any advice?
