Hi, I’m trying to install the OEM bed lights in my ‘23 Pro. I’ve installed all of the OEM equipment and made the necessary changes in FORscan but keep getting the below error code. Does anyone know what is wrong and/or how to fix? Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the truck got delivered with this error. Any changes I've made in 'As Built' were reversed.

Reset the code, power cycle the truck, see if code returns...

I don't recall needing to change anything in the AS Built section of the BdyCM when the bed lights were installed; or did you mean you went through and restored it just to make sure?

I made a couple of adjustments based on some coding differences between 22 and 23 but no dice. The code adjustments I reversed once I determined did not work. I restored as built data just be 100% sure.

Well, that (new) fault isn't necessarily tied to the Bed Lights. The first fault could've occurred during the install, before the install was completed. Particularly, if you didn't disconnect the battery prior to working on the electrical system (plugging in the bed lights). Sorry, I'm not more helpful with the new fault code. I'm not sure what that specific code could be.
