Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AMP Research 75131-01A?
The AMP Research 75131-01A is a complete LED light kit for AMP Research PowerStep automatic running board systems. It includes four LED modules, a splice-in wiring harness, split loom, and cable ties everything needed to add or replace underboard lighting on any new-style PowerStep application.
What PowerStep systems is the 75131-01A compatible with?
The 75131-01A is compatible only with AMP Research PowerStep installations that use a new-style control module. This includes current PowerStep, PowerStep XL, and PowerStep Xtreme applications. It is not compatible with older-style modules 75141-01A or 75134-01A.
How do the LED modules mount to the running boards?
The LED modules attach to the underside of your PowerStep boards and connect via pigtail connectors to the included wiring harness. Depending on your specific application, some mounting locations may require drilling the included installation guide identifies which setups require it.
Does the 75131-01A require a separate power source?
No. The 75131-01A harness splices directly into the existing PowerStep wiring, drawing power from the same circuit as the boards themselves. The LEDs illuminate when the boards deploy and turn off when they retract.
How many LED modules are included?
The 75131-01A includes four LED modules, providing two per board for even, consistent illumination along the full length of both running boards.
Is this a direct replacement for factory PowerStep lights?
Yes. The 75131-01A is the factory-spec replacement LED kit for AMP Research PowerStep systems. If your existing LEDs are dim, damaged, or missing, this kit restores them to original AMP Research specification.
Does installation require drilling?
On select applications, yes. The installation guide (downloadable from AMP Research) identifies which vehicle-specific PowerStep setups require drilling for LED module mounting. Many installations are drill-free.
What warranty comes with the 75131-01A?
The AMP Research 75131-01A LED light kit is backed by a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
