HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 мар 2014
- Getting into your truck shouldn't feel like climbing Mount Everest. That's why AMP Research invented POWERSTEP™, the automatic, electric-powered running board that instantly extends when you open your door, and then hides itself safely out of sight when the doors close for improved ground clearance, aerodynamics and appearance.
Watch us install an Amp Research powerStep on a 2014 Dodge crew cab short bed.

Watching this dude install these steps made me grateful for the two items that I have in my toolbox. A credit card and a phone.
lol. Sometimes it is best to call in a professional. :)
This is one of the better instructional video's I seen while doing my research. Very helpful and answered some open questions I still had. Hard wire is the way to go - more difficult but will be worth it in the end. Will be purchasing and installing on my 2018 Mega
Thanks!
Great video.
I saw you struggle with the rivet at the beginning,
I thought that was great to show because, as you know, NOTHING goes perfectly when installing things.
Many "how to" videos skip the nitty gritty parts of the job and just show the clean, edited version and I find myself saying, "did the whole install really go that smoothly? Didn't they have trouble with this bolt or that plate, etc. "
Seeing you have a little trouble along the way shows how installs REALLY go, with fumbles along the way being a normal part of the job.
You're now my goto site for installation tutorials.
Keep it up!
+Rick K Thank you very much! We do try to edit out some of our struggle because if we didn't we would have several hour long install videos. However, we are still human and do have difficulties all the time with installations. We try to let the viewer know in the video of any struggles we had even if we did not show it in the video. We hope you enjoy our videos!
Thanks for this video. I didn't understand their instructions at all for the wiring, really lucky I found your video!
Got these for my 2015 Ram 2500 mega. Can't wait to get these on! I ended up getting the plug and play. Beats ripping out the dash to get to the wires.
The same part number as in the video?? I have a mega but was iffy if they’d fit
Great video I followed it step by step and it really helped. The only difference with my 2017 is that there is now a plug and play harness.
Thank you. That is why we make the videos.
Great step by step install. Thanks guys!
Thank your for the video. I looked for 40 minutes for the 3rd bolt on the interior bracket for the controller before watching the video lol.
sigsond Glad it helped. That is why we do this! We want to help the diesel community and turn everyone into a diesel mechanic to save some money on shop fees.
great, but what about someone in a big medium duty or heavy duty truck. I blew out my knee but still want to drive my truck. It's 2 ft to the running board or if I removed the running board it's a 3 ft climb into my cab. I can't do it any longer because of my knee. So I'm out of work until . . .
Where there 4 violet wires are tied in, you cant see what wires go were, can you please tell me what color wires you tied into to what color harness . And could you do this under the fuse box?
www.amp-research.com/images/ePIM/original/AMPIS-76138.pdf This is the installation guide for 13-15 trucks.
That amp under the dash is definitely a pita, had trouble finding that last screw.. im installing on a 2018 ram2500, so thanks very much for the video , i opt for a hardwire kit instead of the pnp because its not avaiable yet , plus I wanna keep the port open for something else. Perhaps a tuner.
Soapy water provide good lubrication when it's wet, but when it dries there is no lubrication. Unlike using oil or grease as a lubricant, it never really dries and the bolts can come lose even if you use threadlocker. I used so pay water all the time for stubborn rubber exhaust hangers, slips off like nothing but when it dries it stays sturdy on its hanger. I hope I explained that we'll enough... I don't know if that's the exact reason that they recommended it but that's at least the reason I like to use it.
"so pay" meant to say soapy*
King of the hill..
Dang gone fresh air maan..sumbitch...🤣
I have problems with mine, it is getting stuck in the body of the truck on the passenger side and I can't find the problem. Anyone know what can it be
Clearance?
Would the wiring on a 2014 RAM (1500) be exactly the same????
Do I really need the pop rivet? What is it for?
STEVIEPOO
OUTSTANDING AND VERY REALISTIC. I WOULD ORDER ONE , BUT CAN'T SEEM TO GET AMP TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE OTHER APPLICATIONS . FOR EXAMPLE THEY NEED TO MAKE ONE THAT WILL FIT THE NEW CHEVY COLORADO AND CMC CANYON PICK UP INSTEAD OF PLAYING GOLF.
+Tabatha Pryor Thank you! They may in the future.
Why did you run the wires back into the cab? All those wires are under the fuse box in the engine compartment. Was very easy to just hook them up there
The instructions had us run them into the cab to tap into individual door wires.
I tried the fuse box method on my bestops and it didn't work. Thoroughbred saved my ass! I have a 16 power wagon
Unrelated to the steps, what size tire is on that truck in the video? Thank you for putting these videos together!
My sidestep get stuck sometimes until I mess with the door then it opens do you have any suggestions or do you know why
Sounds like a wiring issue. Trace all wires and check connections.
Thanks for the video, if you could describe which violet/gray wire for the driver rear door (blue connector) that would be awesome. I have the dash torn apart before I watched this video. All my connectors are unhooked so I can't test the two wires.
Thanks again for the video, best I've seen
-Matt
Matt, you probably found this out by now, you can test continuity while the connector is unhooked.
Test continuity to what wire?
My truck had oem steps on and now I'm putting these on. that plate that you hooked the zip tie to So it doesn't fall in frame I don't have to do since there is already the rivets for top bolts in frame already right?
+Preston Simon That is correct for the top bolts.
Did you have to relocate the brake cable? I have installed a set before on a 2010 Ram. Now I have a 2016. Never done that before. Don't like the idea of messing with brake cables.
I don’t recall having to relocate the brake cable on this installation.
Instead of going through the fire wall for the trigger wires can I just do them under the fuse box
Can you explain more I am about to install these
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks.
Something that I didn't see in this video or other power step install videos, do you install additional rivets x 2 at the top of each linkage as a last step. My instructions show it and I've yet to do it. Didn't know if it was really necessary...
***** We actually went back and installed ours, it’s just important to make sure you put some paint on the holes that you drilled.
I noticed that you didn't use the pop rivet that the instructions say to use on the top part of the Hanger, was that intentional? Is the pop rivet unnecessary? Great, insightful video.
We did the pop rivet and I do not have an explanation as to why it did not make it into the video. We apologize for that.
Went to your website to see what the cost of these is and they aren't listed as being available for Dodge trucks.
erslll71 We are still working on getting all the applications for this on the website. These are available but would probably be best to call in toll free to get the best price 1-866-737-4966.
Are the steps supposed to but up against the pinch weld? The instructions say no. Also, have you guys had a problem with a step getting stuck in the pinch weld?
We have not had any problems with them hanging.
CDGsharp3 Mine is doing the same thing. Did you ever get it worked out?
Nice!
I have a question for you guys. i have the same exact truck and I recently intalled these steps. The steps work like they should with every door. But for some reason its draining my battery. I noticed my dash flickers when the truck is off aswell. please help! thanks.
Sounds like you may have pierced a wire that you should not have. Go through the entire harness to find the compromised wire(s).
Thoroughbred Diesel Thank you for replying. I have Uploaded a video showing what my truck does, when it is completely shut off. If you wouldn't mind taking a look at it i would gladly appreciate it. thanks in advance. i have checked all wire and connections and it appers that all of them are connected correctly.
Only thing to do is to completely unhook all of the step wires and begin backtracking. If this happened when you installed the steps then it likely is related to the steps.
Say fellas, I have a issue with my passenger front right door, sometimes the step will come down and times it doesn't, there's is power going to the door jam cuz it shows Ajar light on when door is open, the step will come down when rear door is open,? can you guy's help me ??? it's a 03 Ram quad 4x4 diesel.. Thanks for your reply..
A question to those who's having these for some years:
Does they hold Up even after some years in Snow n salt?
These steps have proved to be very resistant to corrosion and road grime.
@@thoroughbreddiesel thanks for the quick answer!👍
I'm living in northern Sweden with quite harsh winter conditions, and it's some distance from the US so if I order I want it to last for ever..😂
NP. There could be someone that has a similar product closer to you. We personally do not ship internationally but AMP Research themselves may. I would check with them.
@@thoroughbreddiesel OK.
$1200 kit and didn't solder any thing.........
Why the dont use the frame is beyond me. Seems like a weak point.
