Pod lights to the Upfitter Switch #5 - HELP!

I got a pair of DV8 3" Elite Series LED Pods lights for my Bronco. I wanted to write both to my Upfitter Switch #5, but I can only get one to turn on.

What is the issue? Do I need to write each pod individually to a switch?? I was able to wire a pair of KC Hilites Flex Era 3 to switch #4 with no issues.

What am I missing? I swapped out the wire connectors and even tried another pod light and still will only power 1 light instead of the pair.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Anything would help, thanks in advance!

Does each light work independently?? As in... if you hook up each light with its harness it turns on (without the other light connected).

I didn't try that yet, but I got a brand new 3rd light to make sure the one I have is not defective.

Have you tested the none working light to see if it is good?

Ditto on testing the light…
Maybe test both lights together off of the battery…

Test your ground on both lights… if that’s how you have wired it… or if grounding to negative post on battery … (make sure the circuit is completed😁)
