Auxiliary Switch Wiring

Ok, first off, I'm not new here. Had to come in under a new user id as I could not find my old one. I have not been here in quite awhile.


I recently picked up a 2013 Ram 4500, 4x4, 4 door, Aisin, Cummins and so on. Love the truck so far and love the idea of the 5 auxiliary switches but am having a time figuring out if the connections are under the hood somewhere or under the dash. I know they have power to them but from there I am clueless. I have a strobe light I need to put on the truck so hopefully I don't get run over while working on the side of the road by oblivious morons.


Anybody have any info on these switches, location of the power out? Do I need to come off the switch in the cab? Thanks for any help!

Check out: www.rambodybuilder.com. You will find all the info you need. But they are located next to the auxiliary PDC located under the hood on the driver side up against the fire wall.

I use the Chrome browser. In the past, you were only able to use IE (have not tried other browsers), but needed adobe reader installed. The direct link I posted, had a link at the top of the page for other browsers. I clicked that link and everything seemed to work fine other than having to click continue or something on a compatibility notice.... it did work though.

Thanks a lot guys! The link posted by 6.7 worked flawlessly! Found an explanation, location and all quickly! Looks like I try and find the remainder of the upfitter kit after they did the bed install and perhaps today mount my light. Thank you again!

Just for info on the 2013 there is a small panel just below the drivers vent that can just house 3 switches complete with guards, the access behind is good too, an easy way to add things that can be removed with no tell tale by replacing the panel with a new one.

Found the connection near the auxiliary pdc, found the pin for Aux 1 and others. Went to find the terminal pins and rubber grommets at the Dodge dealer so I could wire it in with original material/equipment. I'm not sure how that is going to work out. They had to do some hunting and order some stuff that they were not sure would work. We'll see....
