Hey everyone, I never post these kind of messages but but I would give Jeff @Middleton Motorsports a huge shout out!
I was going crazy with this 2025 bronco base up fitter conversion. Of course their video was my guide and made the disassembly and reassembly very straightforward..
Unfortunately...
bad news for 2025 Base owners....
sadly it's just not possible in a 2025 Base!
the bottom line is the A pillar harness (vehicle side) doesn't have the pins to support the upfitters signal wires.
So...you can replace the fuse box, you can get a new harness and you can get the Upfitter console...
ok....figured it out!

its as tight as can be and still the issue
Tried another fuse box with aux fuses same issue
I double checked a pillar harness connection and that’s good
The harness it connected to in the a pillar had several blank spots
Stumped!
ya...I followed that video 100% when I did the install.
I'll dismantle and double check but that is a major pain! im 99.9% sure I didn't mess anything up.
thanks!
correct..I have the base!
I bought 3 parts:
1) Upfitter switch console
2) replacement harness
3) updated fuse panel.
I followed the sticky directions and the Middleton motorsports installation instructions.
I got the proper parts for the 2025 using a badlands VIN and double checking...
Well that was a fail! dealer checked and they have no software updates or configuration on their side to do.
I did just test each Upfitter fuse and there is no power to any.
I tested multiple BCM fuses, including #2 in the interior of car and they are all fine.
I tested adjacent fuses to the...
Hi! Thx for your response!
The switches glow blue so I’m assuming the harness is providing power to switches.

thanks!
the space on drivers side was pretty tight but was able to fish it through!
taped up the third. lights/kit seem great!
mine didn't have upfitters so I added the switches, fuse panel and harness.
I connected the ground.
Hi All!
Well I sourced all the right parts (switch console, proper harness and fuse box) and did the install.
Everything came apart and went back together well.
Only problem now is the up fitters glow blue but when switched they don't turn orange....
Fuse box is secure/seated properly...
this was from chat got...maybe for 2025 software needs to be updated
Why this is happening
Blue light = backlighting (illumination circuit)
Amber/orange light = “active” status signal
On the 2025 Bronco, the amber “on” indicator will NOT work unless the vehicle is programmed to know the...
