AMP Research Running Board Light Connector

AMP Research Running Board Light Connectors: Keeping Your PowerStep Illuminated

When the LED lights on your AMP Research PowerStep running boards begin to dim, flicker, or fail, the right replacement connector and lighting components make all the difference. Running board light connectors are the critical electrical link between your vehicle's wiring harness and the LED modules embedded in your steps — and when they're functioning properly, they ensure your boards light up reliably every time the door opens.

AMP Research invented the patented PowerStep, the automatic, electric-powered running board that instantly extends when you open your door and retracts out of sight when the doors close for improved ground clearance, aerodynamics, and appearance. That integrated lighting system is a key part of the PowerStep's appeal, and AMP Research's dedicated light connector components are engineered to maintain it at peak performance throughout the life of your truck.

Purpose-Built for the PowerStep Ecosystem

Visibility is key when stepping into or out of your truck at night. That's why AMP Research PowerStep running boards come equipped with an integrated lighting system. Strategically placed LED lights illuminate the steps as they deploy, making it easy to see where you're stepping in low-light conditions — whether you're in a dark parking lot or on a remote job site.

AMP Research's comprehensive LED light kits include everything necessary to replace factory LED lights on your Power Steps, including four LED modules with pigtails, splice connectors, a wiring harness, split loom, and nylon cable ties for better wire management. These are not generic aftermarket components — the AMP PowerStep LED Light Kit is engineered specifically for use with AMP Power Steps and is compatible with steps utilizing the new-style Control Module.

Easy Installation, OEM-Level Fitment

Engineered and manufactured in the USA, AMP Research running board light products reflect a commitment to quality and innovation in truck accessories. The connector kits are designed to integrate seamlessly with existing PowerStep wiring, minimizing the need for custom fabrication. Installation requires drilling on select applications and splicing into the original PowerStep wiring harness, with experienced installers typically able to complete the process in about an hour.

AMP Research holds over 45 US and international patents for automotive and transportation-related products , and that engineering depth shows in the precision of their connector designs. Every component is spec'd to work within the PowerStep's existing control module architecture, so there's no guesswork about compatibility.

Backed by an Industry-Leading Warranty

Reliability doesn't stop at installation. Like all PowerStep products, the PowerStep LED Light Kit is backed with an industry-leading 5-year limited warranty. This warranty lasts five years from the date of purchase , giving truck owners long-term peace of mind on a component that sees regular use in all weather conditions.

Whether you're restoring aging LED illumination or proactively upgrading a connector before failure strikes, AMP Research running board light connectors are the factory-engineered solution designed to keep your PowerStep system operating exactly as intended.
