Have you tried seeing if your cigarette lighter auxiliary plugs on your truck are still active? That power circuit is often times the same power circuit for the OBDII connections and when it fails programmers won't power on.

If you're getting power on that 12V cigarette outlet but still aren't getting any power to the tuner when plugged into the OBD-II port, I honestly think your next step is to contact Edge directly. They will probably need to walk you through some troubleshooting steps specific to your particular vehicle and setup.

@JonathanG I'm having the same issue. My cigarette lighter outlets work, and mt code readers work In MY OBD2 outlet, but not my programmer. And my programmer turns on with power going into the usb, but does nothing without. Did you find out anything ?

@Jason Same here. Tried calling edge products but it didn't help. Could it be the cable? You ever figure it out?

I spoke to my contact at Edge and he informed me that the only way an Edge programmer like the part #EP59YR that you referenced would stay in demo mode is if it is also ran to a power source outside of the OBDII connection. It sounds like you may…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

You do not have to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch in a short bed truck. In many cases, truck beds shorter than 8 ft do not have enough clearance between the trailer and truck to execute sharp turns. This is why sliding hitches were invented. Due to…

Yes, the puck system used on the 2016-2019 Chevy/GMC trucks is different than the pucks used on the 2020 and newer trucks. So you would need a 5th wheel like the B&W Companion #BWRVK3710 for your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 with an 8' Bed. If you…

Answer 12

Yes you are - all 5th wheel hitches are going to require some type of rails in order to be used. So you'd need #DM8552016-71 for your 2006 Dodge Ram.
