Originally there were seven wires to the reverse, brake, running and turn signal lights, the new ones have five?

How do I connect them? On the new one red is brake light, white is reverse light, yellow is turn signal, grey is ground, and green is running light. On the original dark blue and black are reverse, brown, red, and light blue are running lights and brake lights, and green and yellow are turn signal. The first picture is the one on the driver side, the second picture is the one in the passenger side, and the third picture is the new one.

Ariana,

Nice to hear from you again. What on earth did you get yourself into now? LOL

I think you got a light assembly for a different year or a different model. By chance, did you order a light assembly for a half-ton truck? There are differences between them.

Also, I need pic 3 to see what you purchased.

I attached what I'm showing for a 3/4 ton (2500) for the rear lights and the reverse lights on the vehicle you listed. Take a look at them and let me know if that is what you are seeing.

Take care,

Joe

I got it all connected. I wasn’t the one who ordered the parts. I do always seem to get the cars with crazy problems lol. Speaking of which, I’m about to ask a new question about a Tiguan lol.

Ariana,

It is so nice to hear from you. And yes, you do seem to get the odd ones. LOL As far as the Tiguan, personally I would run. LOL However, I will see if it is still available to answer.

Take care of yourself, and I hope all is well.

Take care,

Joe
