Front Bumper Light bar by Tlyard

[Rick Zoerb]

I got mine through Tesstudio. Both the power running boards and the grill light. I get a error on my frunk switch for the power running boards. They are telling me these two items are not meant to be daisy chained on their CAN connectors. The light works, but the running boards pop that error up. I did unplug the connection on the control box, and re plugged it back in when i had the frunk apart and got it to work. But it only worked until the truck shut off and didn't work again when I came back.

The light that I installed does not hook up to the power in the frunk. That’s probably why I’m not having any issues with it. Mine connects to the power inside of the passenger compartment (Main Port) hope this helps

Watch my install video and you will see what I mean

Yes, my light is the same way. But both the light and the power running boards connect to the CAN connection in the passenger side of the dash. They were telling me there could be an issue with my running boards because these 2 connections are daisy chained in line together. They suggested i may need a splitter. My light works. But the power running boards do not.

Let me ask my contact to see what they advise as they are sending me the running boards to install and I don’t won’t to run into the same thing. I’ll let you know when I hear back.

Thank you. It looks as if you already has an additional plug in that CAN spot. So with the running boards you will have 3 of them chained together? I'm curious if that would cause any problems. I may pull mine apart and switch the order of the plugs and see if that makes a difference.

So I heard back from Tlyard (who I’m getting the running boards from) and they said theirs are powered by the frunk power so no interference. Hope this helps.

Questions: does adding a light bar like this void any warranty? Kinda late now for me, but thought I would ask

Was reading the thread between you guys and I saw that you were asking few times about voiding warranty etc. I can't officially say, but I know that I did some pretty abnormal lighting install to run things off the 110/120 feed in the bed and when I took my truck to Service to get sails replaced from recall they actually thought it was great idea and gave me no concerns with it at all.

What I did w/pics is on this thread: https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/110v-to-12v-ac-to-dc-converter-question.39650/

I saved the 48v lead in front for winch when someone makes one for 48v input so it reduces amperage, and the roof one for the factory light when I can finally get one (I plan on keeping both factory and another 50" or smaller single row bar on depending on if factory is all flood led vs. mix of spot and flood. I know it has ditch, but not sure about forward facing reflectors.
