2008+ turn signals

[dhc2024]

Thanks again, now just need the 2003 info

[dhc2024]

just looked at the headlight harness i pulled out of the newer 2012+ van. the turn signal connector has different colored wires than what is on the 2008-2014 wiring harness diagram u sent me so im not sure how to read or find what i need the colors going to the female 2 pin plug are purple/white stripe and black and the color on the diagram is OG (orange) and LB (light blue) please help

[boywonder]

My diagrams are for 2008......so it sounds like colors/wiring may have changed further by 2012.

Is this what you need? From a 2011:

[dhc2024]

so i looked on the 2011 diagram and i have the same wiring color for the blinker/marker light, but it looks like the violet/white is going somewhere else when both the violet white and black yellow are ending at the blinker/marker light socket. i cant really understand the diagram can someone please help me, the colors that match are in red

I think I see the confusion. You asked about the turn signals, which look like this:



The turn signals use a 3157 bulb, which has two filaments (one for parking and one for the turn signal) and has 3 terminals: one for each filament, and a common ground. These are the bulbs in the circuit diagram.

The connector you have pictured is the side marker lamp, which is not a turn signal. This is the diagram for the side lamps.



I have no idea why they have a separate page for the turn signals when they also appear on the page above--had I realized this sooner, I could have saved you some confusion. Sorry!

I'm more so trying to seperate the high low beam that's all in one bulb on the 2003 harness into the 2 different high low plugs that are on the 2008+ harness on the 2008 harness the connector I showed is the blinker I believe

So you should have what you need from boywonder? The 2011 diagram looks a little different because the DRLs are controlled by FETs in the Smart Junction Box (SJB).

As I mentioned above, the socket you pictured is a sidemarker and not the turn signal.

Don't overthink it.

Get a male pigtail for your existing lights. If you have the composite (plastic, aero) lights, they are 9007s on a 2003.

Read the model number off the bulbs on your composite headlights, order the appropriate pigtails for those too, or use cut-off pigtails from the existing harness from your donor vehicle. You will be connecting all the grounds together, and then running individual hot wires to both high beam and low beam bulbs.

2003s are pretty simple in their headlight wiring. Ground is common between both filaments. Only +12V is switched.

With the headlights off and both bulbs unplugged, get your multimeter and figure out which lead has continuity to chassis ground. That is your common ground wire for both headlights.

Turn the low beams on. You will see +12V between one lead and chassis ground and +12V between that same lead and the chassis ground lead you just identified. Connect the ground and the wire with +12V to your new low beam light socket.

Turn the high beams on. You will see +12V between one lead and chassis ground and +12V between that same lead and the chassis ground lead you just identified. Connect the ground and the wire with +12V to your new high beam light socket.

Dont worry about the colors, use a multimeter and its a 20 minute job.
