@Fast Eddie Sorry for the stupid question but where is the other end of the wires in the engine compartment terminate?
Various parts of the truck. There is one purple wire up by the top of the radiator support as an example. They ran them to different parts of the truck so you could use the switches for various duties. There is a diagram available that shows where they all are- I've seen it on this forum.
see my last post. There's a link to another thread with that info
But the PANEL is the same
And my '26 Badlands did, in fact, come with six switches...
If you want to be dumb, just spend the money.
Not one person ever has said the OEM retrofit system is on par much less better than the aftermarket options. Plus it costs a multiple more. Like I said, if you hate money and want a lesser system, rock on bro....
Well one has said it now, the original OEM wiring, switches and fuse box are superior to most aftermarket solutions I have seen. It has OEM connecters and pins on all wiring, with the fuses for each circuit lacate in the factory fuse box. Mounting aftermarket controllers and boxes under the hood is not a clean looking installation and looks just like it is, Cheap. Not to mention tapping into the fuse box with a piggy back connector is a cobb job that started decades ago and many times a source of problems. Do the aftermarket ones work, Yes. Do the components look OEM, No. Are they covered by Ford warranty, No. Ford OEM is also easier to install and totally plug and play, not one splice. Are they better than OEM, No. So I will go back to my original question that you didn't answer when you referred I was Dumb and ask. Does anyone know where I can get the lowest price on Ford replacement parts to install the factory upfitter switches?
