Finally someone explained upfitter wiring with enough detail that it makes sense to us rookies... Thank you!
Glad I could help my man! Thanks for watching. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I watched two other everything about using Uplifter switches and didn’t tell me like your video did. Clear and simple now I can wire in my number led light to my new SteelCraft Elevation front number.
Thank you for taking the time to show everyone.
Thanks for watching brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
“Well no shit dumb ass” 😅😅. Always good stuff brother, that glowing ford badge on the grill looks sweet!
Thank you! I love how it looks as well! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Only 20 seconds in colt and I’m reminded why I’m subscribed to your channel!!!😂 Another great video! 🍻
My man!!! Appreciate it Don! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Yup me Two!!
A CZcams boy showed a cool idea. Under the truck somewhere middle of the truck find a spot to mount an electrical terminal junction strip that has a cover on it. Marine grade. Then connect a long enough piece of wire to each of the six upfitter wires. Then run those six wires neatly down to that terminal junction strip. Connect all six wires to one side of the TJ strip using appropriate ring terminal. Using a helper (to make it easier) ask your helper to throw switch 1. Find that wire with your Volt Ohm Meter. Label that wire #1. Now go find and label #s 2-6 same way. Attach the TJ strip cap. Now anytime you want to wire something up to an upfitter switch just roll under your truck and terminate your hot / power lead of your device (light, horn, etc) to the appropriate TJ block terminal - again with a ring.
Basically this moves all the wires from in the hood space to under the truck where it is a whole lot easier to maneuver. Plus they are now labeled 1-6. Why the FU_K Ford doesn’t number them for you I’ll never know. Horrible of them. By the way - my 2022 manual gives me a table that shows what color wires go to which switch. However when I was hooking my back up lights up I found out that the wire colors they installed on my truck don’t match the wire table colors. I had to find the right wire by ringing it out with my VOM as previously stated.
I’m gonna go do that TJ block idea at some point. That’s a good idea.
Great video. Just an FYI: reason amperage climbs when truck is off is because voltage drops, but power requirements stay the same, and amperage increases to make up for it. When off guessing voltage on good battery about 13.2 VDC and when running voltage usually about 14.4 VDC. Again, very helpful! Thanks.
Your truck isn’t “nasty”, it’s seasoned brother. It’s been out there gettin it for a minute! Another great video. Busssh
That’s right! Appreciate it Mike! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Saved me so much time watching this 👍🏻 wiring up my 22 7.3 plow lights
Hell yea! Glad you got it working brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Thanks for the video from a dude who explains it so i can understand. The other videos from other people suck. Thanks again.
My man! Anytime, thanks for watching brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great information! Thanks for simplifying it! As always, I appreciate your "matter of fact" approach!
Thank you!! Just got a 2018 F250 Lariat. Traded my 2019 F150 for it. Now I know how they work. Now I got to figure out what I want to connect to them.
Anytime brother, thanks for watching. Hit that sub button if you haven’t, got a lot of superduty content! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Excellent. Clear and to the point. You made it easy to understand. Thanks for the help. Great job.

Thx Colt! Another great video dude! Saved me time doing my truck!
Colt! Thanks for that, brother! Another great one!
Great video. Much help. Going to add some stuff to my 2020 7.3 Gadzilla and this answered my questions. 2020 on the passenger side. 😉
Perfect, thanks. This is what I was looking for
Thank you for you sharing the information and taking the time 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the great and simple explanation. Appreciate you making and posting the video.
Anytime brother, thank you for watching. Hit that sub button if you haven’t. Trying to grow the channel. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Thank for this. I wanted to help others to understand the Amps difference. It has to do with Voltage. The formula is Amps = Watts X Voltage. When the vehicle is running, often the voltage runs 12.5 to 13.5 volts dependent of the alternator. When not running the voltage coming from the batteries are often less. Using 60 watt light times the voltage, you can see why the difference in amps can happen. Thanks again, it was very helpful.
Thanks for watching brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
So I'm thinking the amperage is likely different because when off the truck sits at 12-13 volts vs 14-15 when running and the lights pull more amperage to make the same power when off. Awesome job explaining the up-fitter switches, they're crazy simple when you explain them lol.
Yes sir, that is the reason. Thanks for watching Justin! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Appreciate your channel and everything you do
Thanks brother, I appreciate you watching my dumb ass! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

Thanks Colt super clear and concise the way I like it!
My man! Appreciate it brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I like the emblem light, Colt! Had enough coffee yet, Colt, lol! The energy you have!!
It’s all for show!! Lol, I’m always dragging ass!! 😂😂😂. It’s a putco emblem. Just be sure to get the one if you have a camera or not. Here’s a link! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 amzn.to/3JtZ1BN
@@COLTSWAY are you able to get the front emblems in red like the rears?
Not that I have seen. I’m sure someone will make it one day, but putco doesn’t. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
You just saved my bacon…and my lights!!! Appreciate you and what you do! 👍🏼
Thank brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great and simple video. Thank you!

Lmao!! My bad!!! Thanks for watching bro! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
good stuff again sir!!
Appreciate it Joe! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Now I understand where the damn wires are. I've been looking forever.
Glad I could help brother. Thanks for watching, hit that sub button if you haven’t. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Awesome video, my 19 xlt didn’t come with the upfitter switches and I want to add them, gotta get them switches now.🇺🇸🦅
There are a few vids online of it I think. Shouldn’t be to hard. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Thank you
This channel is so underrated
Thanks my man! Maybe one day she will take off! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video man. Love watching your videos. Gives me ideas for my pheasant model f250. I however would be interested in seeing a way to bullet proof these trucks from thieves (San Antonio) an elsewhere. Not sure if anything is out yet but I think it would be a hit.
Thanks Blake, I appreciate it as always. Yea I need to look into doing a vid on that. I hear mostly they steal the ones with the push button start…I’ll have to do some digging and see what I can come up with. I know a lot of people change out the door handles. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I want the lights, please! Thank you! Enjoy your videos!
Now, make a video on the high idle hack for a 2020. For that mod there is a secondary upfitter wire harness firewall pass through is located in the passenger side kick panel above the fuse panel. Ford engineers didn’t provide long enough firewall passthrough cables. Installing the resister there is a huge pain in the butt!
Great video on the reverse lights! Stay safe!
I might have to do that. I did a video on high idle for my 18. Hell I can’t imagine if the pass threw wires got any shorter then mine! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Either the engineers got a laugh at how short they could make the wires and call them pass through, or the bean counters saved two cents and shortened them all by a couple inches. You have to be a contortionist to hook up to them.
I like the spot on 2020’s and up versus where ours is located. Seems easier to get to.
Yes it does, I like it as well. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I have the upfitter switches thank you for the info. I do wish my 21 hood had the same 💩 yours does.
Crazy how they trying to save all that extra cash lol. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I love the way you address the idiots that cant leave people alone
Thanks brother, I mean someone has to. Bunch of keyboard warriors. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Love the content. Right to it. No bullshit.. “But I get the shit done”. Def subscribed.
My man! Appreciate that brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
GM! Big daddy! Really appreciate how to install the lights, I’m getting the wire harness this week, can’t wait. But in my research I’m going to add a Mechman 320 alternator it’s on sale and I’ll get rid of the 150… take care from commicalifornia!
Hell yea! I might have to look into that myself! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@@COLTSWAY Correction Big Daddy! I will be getting the 370amp!
Thanks!
I wonder why ford didn’t include this with all F series trucks, even as an expensive option. I would add it for sure.
Thanks for the help 👍 I'm thinking of installing a backup camera for my dump truck 2022 f450 wish me luck 🙏 😅
Easy Peazy! You got that my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Don’t take no shit from the comments Colt! 💪. Thanks for this video. About to put some ditch lights on the Tremor and was curious about these upfitters! Keep the videos coming brother!
Ain’t taking nothing my man!!! That front end on your tremor looks sweet!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@@COLTSWAY thanks man she is getting there. Waiting on my Carli Lift/wheels and tires
Gonna be sweet!🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Very nice
Thanks brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
LMAO. Good stuff man. Love it.
Thanks brother!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video to answer all my questions to wire up my KC’s. The Jackass comments were so funny!🤣
My man!! Glad it helped brother, we say it like it is around here! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Outstanding information. I also found on my 2023 uplifted wires in cap right side floor panel. Wonder why?
Appreciate that brother. Those are pass threw wires. If you want to run something off an upfittrer that inside the truck. Like dash cam or high idle. I did a video on both, I’ll like the high idle vid and it will show the pass threw wires. 2017-2018-2019Ford F-250 6.7 Diesel High idle with upfitters.

Every time I catch your video it's always something I need to get me through the day now I'm asking for your help you showed your 2018 and then the 2022 somebody told my 2018 almost a year ago I'm out of the hospital now I have a 2022 Super Duty would it be possible to know if cover under the hood would fit your buddies 22 my truck did not come with one just like your buddies 22 Super Duty I'm sure a lot of the subscribers have the same ordeal I would be interested to know if your hood covering goes up under his will it fit I don't know if they call that a heat blanket I don't know the name for it insulator that's it can you try yours on his and see if it works and what type of light would I need I love your videos man they're badass
just curious if you could post where your friend chad I believe got his rear bumper lights from?
Colt not enough Bush latte's in this video.😂😂😂
You damn right!!! Lol. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
What about the wires that are in the drivers side footwell? How do these integrate?
Another great video Colt!! Where did you get the emblem light?
Got it off Amazon. If you click my Amazon store links in the description you will find it. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
2022 f550 passenger side upfitter wired swicth 1,2,3 to lights under 10 amp of lights on these 25 amp switches. One week after switches 1,2,3,4 do not light up. i have power to fuses and realsy but nothing coming out to upfitter wire or switches do not light up inside.truck andy more. ir there any other fuses that run these switches? Thanks
What bumper is that on the platinum?
Good Vid.
Thanks brother, appreciate it. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Could I pick your brain Bro? I am installing a dash cam in my 2021 F-250. I have upfitter switches and I want to cam “hot” all of the time. Would you wire the cam to an upfitter or straight to the fuse panel? Thanks for your input. ✌️
@gregfleming3199 how this? Did a video on it couple years ago. How to install a Dash Cam on Your 2017-2018-2019-2020 Ford F250

Another great video on dash cam install. Thanks Man. I appreciate it.

Is there a way to swap out the actual switch from a toggle switch to a switch that springs backs. So if you added another horn for example, it won’t stay on when you flip the switch, just as long as you are holding it down…
That 22 Platinum what does he have for a lift I have a 22 and I can't make my mind up and his truck sits nice.
The greatest thing about youtube is all the know it all’s can gather and karate chop all the tubers on every dam video.
You got that right! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video. Going to run same setup to backup lights. Any tips for where to run the wire up the frame?
Thanks Philip! There are holes in the frame and if you have a fish tape you can run the wire all the way down inside the c channel. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Well Done,🤟 Hooah
Thanks brother. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Colt,
can you give me some advice on who I can talk to, to see if I can build my truck the same setup as you ?
I have a 2017 f-350 King Ranch Dually and can use a little help getting it to run more efficiently. Thanks, love the videos really helpful.
Shoot me a email. It’s in video description. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
what rear bumper is that?
I don't care about the comments I rather do a Colts way you do get this s*** done you take the time to do the video show everybody and they still act stupid I think they're jealous keyboard Warriors I just watched the end of the video you are a very smart person one day I hope to meet you but like again if you can find out about the insulator pad that goes up under your buddies truck if yours will fit it I'm going to order one I don't have one and I'm interested about the light too thank you sir and please keep on putting out that good content love the videos
hey man great video. Stupid question, do I need a "in-line" fuse box or relay. I just purchased a wiring harness with all of that and a "on-off" rocker switch.
The upfitters themselves are fused. You don’t need one but it’s always good to put one. A lot easier and faster to change a inline fuse then the upfitter fuses. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video Colt. My 21 came without upfitters. Do you think they may be pre wired and could be added?
I am not sure about pre wired, but I have seen people add them after the fact. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
My poboy 2017 f250 doesn't have upfitter switches in the cab, I'm guessing it may not have anything under the hood. I do have the light lol.
What size wire he run to the back?
Random question for you or anyone. Have you seen your batteries booking over from possible overcharging? I had my batteries replaced under warranty on my 17 f250 lariat and noticed recently that there is water or liquid around the caps
Yea ford batteries are junk. They all gonna leak. I just changed mine out, did a video on it. X2 Power battery upgrade 2018 F250 6.7 Powerstroke

No cocktails this time hahah 🇺🇸💪🏼
Totally slacking. Don’t worry, they coming! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
So I hooked up a camera for a camper and ran 16 gauge wire out to the battery. Connected ground to the neg post and positive to the correct upfitter wire (aux1). Didnt work then tried Aux, still nothing. Is there something else that needs to be turned on ?
Shoot a video on your phone if the way you got it hooked up and send it to me in email. I’ll take a look! coltsway45@gmail.com 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
A 50 Watt GMRS radio will need the 40 Amp and heavier wire.
Another BADA$$ Video!…..🇺🇸

Colt, don’t sweat it man, amps are directly related to volts. With watts staying constant volts increasing reduces amps and voltage decreasing increases amps. So with the vehicle running produces more voltage which lowers amps. Amps = watts/volts
Solid fucking video anyone know what bumper that is on the platinum
Did I miss it, or did you do all of that work, and not have any Latte's?
You didn’t miss it…..been slacking around here! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Let’s do the front bumper so I can see how you address the radar in the front bumper
My xlt didn’t come with up fitters I wish it did
Yeah they do come in handy!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
