Great video. I’ll be attempting this in my 06 megacab soon. I have heated and cooled black leather seats and was trying to figure out the heated and cooling before I started. You did half the work. Thank you.
@@bradjones4440 yes, we dont have the same module as the 03-05 trucks. I directly wired in the to the same wires stated in this video. the control board is linked into the factory switches. it works but its a lower heat than I know it can get. Eventually I will figure out other options but for now it dows work and gets warm but not hot. Hope this helps
for all the guys asking me about weather this will work on late third gen trucks it should because all your using from the fourth gen seats are the elements you do however need all the heater wiring and module from the third gen seats
Thanks for the great video. I am looking at getting 4th gen Laramie seats for my 3rd gen SLT. Would you know if the cooling function requires a module like the heating function, or should I be able to wire it in directly? You mentioned in comments below that airbags can be unplugged. Do you know if they can be made to be functional by wiring power to them? Or does the harness feed power to them?
@@jackprick9797 cooling is just 12v power and a switch. you can add a relay if you want but its not a huge draw. You will only have the max cooling function. you need a canbus controller for the lower speed like in the 4th gens. fun item is with direct wiring, you can have the heated seats and the cooling on at the same time. so you get warm but not sweaty from the seats. lol
I bought a 2004 heated seat module, will it work in a 2009 dodge though. The pickup is a slt but I put in the factory heated seat switches for it and a different floor harness. The heated seat switches just blink but that’s probably because I don’t have the floor plug going to any heated wiring.
yes the switches will blink if there is any problem with the system i dont know if a 2004 module will work in an 09 i would think you might be able to use the module from the newer seats because 2009 had can-bus system
Hey man. Awesome videos. Im doing this to my 03 truck, didnt have factory heat. (SLT) but it currently has heated seats from an 08 that arnt currently hooked up. My question is can i still do this using the 08 modules in my 2014 heated and cooled seats? Also do i need yo get that seat switch panel? Thanks
Hello. Tell me please. I have a 2016 Dodge Ram 3500. the simplest configuration, with manual seat controls. I want to install seats from a 2021 Dodge Ram 3500 Longhorn. I already bought the seats, but now I understand the main problem is with the wires.
I would be super interested to see a diagram that was labeled more like which colored wires represent which feed (heat powe from truck.. heat power to seat) or something that might help me with my wiring them up onto the 06 dodge.. there is no module under the seat like in your truck, the module is integrated into the heated seat button so there’s just a heated seat power feed under the drivers seat that needs to be directed somewhere and im having a hard time finding where to connect it to
ya i would have to figure it out for the newer trucks that use can-bus system i dont have access to a 2006-2009 ram at this point but if i get the chance i will make something for that generation
What if I'm adding seats full power and heated to a truck that was non heated or power but want to add factory heaters and switches? What needs to be done to accomplish this?
you will need to make your own wiring harness you probably would be better off buying a seat heater kit and then just wiring it to the factory elements in the new seats
Hey. Great video. I have a 4th gen Ram 1500 manual. Could I convert it to power seat? Would it be plug and play? I see a yellow connector from the car I assume powering the air bag.
I’m doing this on a 2003 with the factory heated and powered seats on both sides, I’ve got an extra plug on my crossover wire to the passenger seat, as well as an additional plug on the seat belt and heater element set, as well as 6 wires from the plug under the drivers seat including the main power and ground, any ideas if this will still work or what they could be for?
Hey I’ve installed 4th gen seats on my 3rd gen but the buckle chime is coming on & I’ve been using ur vid of how to make the auto seats work. My question is if I connect the buckle wires work with just power & ground?
I have an 05 Laramie, someone stole the Laramie seats and put in vinyl base model seats. I am wanting to add heated seats and use factory switch under radio. Do all pickups need the heating module and such? Trying to piece it all together to get heated seats back!
I have 04 and I have acquired a Laramie harness but where you want me to disconnect the red and black there's extra wires so not sure which is the right ones
Great Video, but I have a 2004 that does not have existing heated seats and i'm putting heated seats in, so my question is if the harness and wiring would look the same in the 3rd gen or if it's vastly different? And also how to get a switch to work with it?
My truck is a 2004 But it already had the wiring for heated seats You will need to make a harness to add heated seats if your truck doesn’t already have them
I’m going to install 4th gen seats in a 2005… I have factory heated system but the 4th gen seats have heated and cool… would everything still work the same as of for the plugs… also are the plugs from the 3rd gen seat the same as the 4th gen as like the seat belt etc… you kinda making look like it’s plug and play except the heated components
all the seat wiring and module from the third gen seats. the elements from the fourth gen seats for the movement of the seats you just hook up the power wires to the fourth gen seat module the belts i swapped the buckles from the third gen seats to the fourth gen seats
Hi I have a 09 3gen mega cab leramie with factory heated seats.I just install some 4gen heated and cool seats plus the jump seat. Where the 3gen factory seat heater module ? Thanks bud
Sam I have a 3rd gen harness for heated seats and the wires on the plug going to the floor is different colors they are 2 reds with blue strip are them the right ones
Can you tell me what year you found for the seats? The local salvage yards where I live are telling me the 4th gen seats have airbags in them and it can go off and cause the end of the world because I didn't listen to them...
my seats are from a 2013 ram 1500 sport they do have air bags. but if you unzip the back of the seat you can unplug the wire directly from the airbag. they will not go off without power
Mines an 07 SLT 3500. I’m wonder if I could just piggyback off the wiring under the jump seat? Looks like there’s a plug there that might connect to a harness for the p/seat.
I have a late 3rd gen laramie and the passenger seat heater plug is different, it is green with two wires. I can cut the wires for the plug and hard solder , how would i know which wires to solder?
I am interested in power passenger seat. So I need to keep any of the passenger side harness to have that function? My 4th gen megacab rear seats are heated. Any tips to get those working on my 3rd gen?
Plz post the video of putting 4gen steering wheel on ur 3rd I’m dying to do it and I’m looking toward you to help guide me bc so far I love ur ideas and work

Does anybody have the wire harness numbers

it should because all your using from the fourth gen seats are the elements

im not sure if the 2008 wiring will work because the electronics changed in 2006
you will need the wiring from seats and dash for a 2003-2005 truck
Thanks bro you save lot time to figure out you save my day another follower 💪

Hey I’ve installed 4th gen seats on my 3rd gen but the buckle chime is coming on & I’ve been using ur vid of how to make the auto seats work. My question is if I connect the buckle wires work with just power & ground?
did you re-use the 3rd gen wiring harness?
@@samswildgarage8805 I’m an idiot 😆, that’s what I get for fast forwarding threw the vid.
Great video man! Quick question will you make a video of the jump seat install when you get the brackets for it?
ya for sure. the bracket part numbers are in my seat install video
I have an 05 Laramie, someone stole the Laramie seats and put in vinyl base model seats. I am wanting to add heated seats and use factory switch under radio. Do all pickups need the heating module and such? Trying to piece it all together to get heated seats back!

And to be sure your using 3rd gen heating modual to power/use the 4th gen heating system that’s what the yellow connectors about?
all the seat wiring and module from the third gen seats.
the elements from the fourth gen seats
for the movement of the seats you just hook up the power wires to the fourth gen seat module
the belts i swapped the buckles from the third gen seats to the fourth gen seats

Has anyone figured out what to do with the trucks with the green heated seat plug?
not that i know of
Sam I have a 3rd gen harness for heated seats and the wires on the plug going to the floor is different colors they are 2 reds with blue strip are them the right ones
Can you go into more detail please
@samswildgarage8805
The hot wire is red with a blue stripe and there is 2 of them but as they go towards the seat they are spliced together
As you are looking at the plug they are the 2 wires on the right side of the plug on on top of the other
I cant find the power wires for the cooler function to save my life.I have a 2006 charger with 2017 daytona charger seats
2006 never had a cooled seat option
or am i miss understanding the question
What color wire would the cooled seat be on?
The plug on the seat?

@@Mopargocar im not sure
but the wiring diagrams for 2006 and older rams are online so you cold compare a base model to an slt to get your answer

Hello. Tell me please. I have a 2016
Dodge Ram 3500. the simplest configuration, with manual seat controls. I want to install seats from a
2021 Dodge Ram 3500 Longhorn. I already bought the seats, but now I understand the main problem is with the wires.
How do I hard wire heated seats I got the same seat I’m swapping into a 96 dodge how would I do that?
i'll make a video in a few weeks here
of adding heaters to the rear seats
that you can copy on the front seats
I’m trying to just get power to move the seat, and want the seat belt light to turn off when I put my seat belt on
It’s described in my seat install video
How to get the seat to move
In this video it will show how to get the seat belt light off
Sam I got a question
ok. what is it
