My light bar has the turn signals that chase each other so after it was all wired up I unplugged the trailer harness part and left it unplugged for a little bit and once it plugged back in it relearned the chase speed. But if your bar doesnt chase like that there is no need. Realy easy though.
How quickly do your lights scan? I have that bar on my truck, and they don't go at all quickly.

They go about as fast as the tail blinks. It comes with a jumper that you cut once you have them timed right. I think I have the bully led bar, I got it at pep boys.

Did you try touching some of the bare wire to the pins on the tail connector? One of them shoulda worked as long as your truck was in reverse. I think ive heard somewhere that the wire colors are different for different years.
