2024 Mojave X Add Bed 115v outlet

[bill61]

So, a couple final questions.
Do the in cab outlet and the bed outlet share the same 400 watt inverter? Or are there separate inverters for each?
I received my “kit” from Benny yesterday and am tackling this today.

They share the same inverter.

Let us know how that goes. I still can't find the switch wire.

Just don’t give up. Get the speaker pod out and 99% chance it’s up behind there.

Actually it seemed fairly easy to find the connector. Thanks to all the information in this thread!
I got it pulled out with just taking the screws out of the speaker (once I got to it). I’m working on the outlet and harness exchange now.

I guess that I should have asked the question about one or two inverters before I bought the kit. Luckily the two things I want to run draw less than 400 watts combined.

The connector was not visible, but there was some electrical tape visible. I picked at it with a small screwdriver for a couple minutes until it came loose. Then I fished the connector out and ran it to the switch.

Evidence
I like that the bed outlet power stays on when you cycle through the ignition. I’ll get a JScan license for my Gladiator (and the VGate adaptor cable) to enable the bed power , no hurry.

Shhhh, don’t say how easy it is to find. You’re gonna drive @YGBSM nuts wondering why on earth he can’t find his still.

Sorry.
I was saying that from my first reading of this thread when there were about 10 posts. I was thinking “No Way am I going to tear my dash apart like that to pull a connector out and install a switch”. Thank God I didn’t have to take it apart all the way to the passenger side.
I came back at the 6 page and reread it and thought “This is doable”. Especially after watching the video @YGBSM linked on post 84.
My connector was buried pretty deep but I could see electrical tape wrapped around the headlight control harness and just knew it had to be securing the connector harness for the bed 110.

I went in again today. Used all the inspection tools and a borescope. Nothing...

But I've got a couple of guys who I think can get it done!

I'm just sitting in the corner of a dark garage watching the Mojave mock me. I know it's in there... I know it is...

Man, I wish you the best.
I could just see the headlight harness travel back into the dash above the speaker when I shined a flashlight in there. I had the speaker loose but not out. At about 6” or 8” from the headlight harness connector there was some black electrical tape. I just knew that had to be where they had secured the harness.
It’s strange because there have been a couple pieces of yellow electrical tape fall out of my dash.

I'll try again tomorrow.

I would just disconnect the harness from the headlight switch so you can pull that lower panel out of the way (the one where the 110 V bed power switch mounts into) and follow that harness back into the dash. It is there.
They all have it, right? Mine is an April 2024 build.

Benny from AMP said that the 24s were all the same part numbers so mine should be there also. My problem is that my headlight wire goes through a small area at about 6-8" and I can't get back there without taking more parts off.

The Reddit write up didn't show the same layout as mine.

I think I've found the right tool to get behind the plastic plate.

I'll post the results after I get out of the ER tomorrow .
