High Center Mounted Stop Light stopped working

[Rockabillyroy]

This happen to anyone else? It worked at first. Then over time, would work sporadically. Then eventually stopped all together. I took the light out and tested it to make sure it wasn't the harness. No Go.

Still under warranty, but didn't want my truck sitting there for 4 hours for a 5 minute swap. So I Called the dealership to see if they'd just take a look and hand me the part so I could install it in the parking lot. Service desk said no. Had to try. Hahaha.

I ordered a used on off of ebay. Worth the $35 not to deal with shuttling back and forth to the dealership.
On a side note, I found an excellent vid on youtube for the light swap. Super easy.

My LED center brake light has been replaced already. Sometimes it would work, and then not. Warranty.

I got an error from the BCM, saying there was an issue with the CHMSL.
Like a dummy I took it to the dealer, and rather than just test the LED lamp assembly, they futzed around testing everything else.
Ended up costing me the $200 extended warranty deductible instead of $60 for the Mopar light.

I was pretty sure I tested the current light out. But after installing the new one, I tried it again and it was fine. Turns out the harness is faulty. I think they updated to a new number version all together. Not just revision letters.

Wondering if anyone knows where to just get the center lamp connector. I can cut off the old one and repin it myself. Save me a trip to the dealership.

Thanks
