When installing the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8350 on your 2012 Ram 1500 Crew Cab you will need to locate the tan/white stripe and tan/green stripe wires in the driver side kick panel. These wires will be part of a larger harness so you will likely need to pull them free.
I have attached an installation video on the 2012 Ram that you can use for reference.
