Tailgate Light Bar Recommendation for a 2019 Ford Ranger with LED Tail Lights

Question:

I have a 2019 ford ranger xlt with led tail lights the right directional quit workig so I purchased a tail light bar from the online-led-store thru amazon when pluged into my factory 4 way and turn either directional on about 5 of the leds will blink but very dull. I then plugged the light bar into the four way of my 2007 ford e150 and it worked fine. So my question is do you know for sure this tail light bar works with a vechile like mine. I have read your reviews and looked over your website but couldnt find anyone who put this on a newer ford ranger with factory led tail lights I would just like to make sure it will work before ordering so I dont have to return it like I have the last one I bought from the online led store.

We may have something that works but if your right directional light isn't working on your 2019 Ford Ranger you'll want to check the bulb, assembly, fuse, and wiring. A tailgate light bar will help make your truck more visible but if that signal isn't working on your truck and the right directional didn't work on the tailgate bar I'm not confident that any tailgate bar will work properly until you get your truck light fixed.

The Rampage SuperBrite LED Tailgate Light Bar # RA960135 gets the signal via a 4-Way connector but it looks like Rampage doesn't list it as a fit for any Ford trucks. For a direct-fit application we have the Putco Blade LED Tailgate Light Bar # P64CR which tees in behind your factory tail lights and comes with a designated 4-Way connector for the light bar so you aren't using the OEM 4-Way connection just for the light bar.
