Just finished installing 1st set of 2 Amp Smart Series steps. A few notes and ONE issue. The instructions show a harness relocation bracket that states "Except TRX" when in fact it is for the TRX ONLY. The instructions also show removal of the dash side panel to locate the "blue" harness connector panel that the trigger wire plugs into....DO NOT remove the side panel. You only need to remove the ebrake override cover/door and TWO screws securing the ebrake panel for easy access to the connector block. The one issue I had was once everything was routed, connected, and powered up the steps worked in reverse order! Door closed....steps down. Door open....steps up. Both sides! Polarity on BOTH motors was opposite that from the harness so BOTH harnesses needed to be un-pinned and wires swapped. Easy enough, just a little aggravating to do under the truck with a flashlight at 11PM
It's all good now and the phone app is pretty cool.

Thank you for the heads up. I will definitely relate this to them.Interesting. I dealt with this exact bullshit on my AMP steps. My step harnesses both had reversed polarity so I had to re-pin. The instructions remind me of something from IKEA. The pictures and illustrations are not very helpful.
The only video is from the lead engineer installing them in a warehouse, but he leaves out key details about routing ect. You’d think for as much as these cost we could get a detailed install video, the correct wiring for the connecting plugs, and some decent instructions.
And why not use bright white LED pods instead of the cheap purplish blue lights? Alright that’s enough Complaining Carol for me
I will say after I got my bitching out of the way they are pretty awesome steps. I ordered some bright white lights to replace the crappy blue/purple hue AMP provided.
We appreciate the feedback and looking forward to seeing pictures. I wish AMP would step up their lighting especially since they are raising pricing again in the coming months.
