How To Wire Light Bar Makeup

General Recommendations:

Keep these steps in listen for every installation.

Bench test everything prior to installation.
Do not over tighten hardware.
Keep all lights and wires away from moving parts.
Go along all lights and wires away from loftier heat sources, brake components, exhaust components, coolant systems.
Double check proper aiming to yield the best results.
Secure wiring to avoid damage.
Fuse all connections within 18" of bombardment/ability source.

Detect a suitable mounting location that will allow for running wires and mounting the LED low-cal(s). Lay out and mark where the mounting holes will exist positioned. Drill appropriate-sized hole(s) for the mounting hardware. Before starting to drill hole(s), check behind locations to insure nothing will exist damaged while drilling lite mounting holes.
Mount the lights with the provided hardware, being certain not to over tighten the hardware (you will need to adjust them in Step vii). Optional mounting brackets (MODLED-BK), clamps (MODCLx-BK), and magnetic mounting systems (WL-MB) are available.
Route the lighting side of the wiring harness from the battery to the light(s) in a safe, secure manner. Connect the harness to the light(due south). Be sure to avert estrus sources and any moving parts while running your wires. Prolonged chafing of the wires may pb to a short in the circuit. Typically, post-obit the vehicle manufacturer'south wiring harness is a safe path to follow. Some lights may non have DT or ATP connections on them simply the connectors tin can be added from the harness kit or purchased separately (DT-FPT or ATP-FPT).

Go along to route the switch portion of the harness to the desired location of the switch. The switch may need to exist unplugged from the harness to make routing of the harness easier. An optional remote-controlled switch (RCS-RF25A) can be utilized to speed upward the time of an install and avert routing wires through the firewall. Be sure to double-check for all obstructions and proper clearances. Drill an appropriate-sized hole for the switch. Connect the wires to the switch and mount the switch. Illuminated rectangular rocker switches (RS-10) are also available with different legends.
Connect the black (ground) wire with the large ring terminal from the harness to the negative bombardment terminal. Connect the red (power) wire with the large band terminal from the harness to the positive battery terminal.
Secure the relay to a suitable location and test the lights to make sure the circuit works.
Finally, aim the lights in the desired direction and tighten all the mounting hardware.

Wiring with Super Bright LEDs Harness

Wiring w/ Existing Low-cal Wiring

Disconnect existing lighting circuit from the bombardment or simply remove the existing fuse. Find a suitable mounting location that volition allow for running wires and mounting the LED light(s). Lay out and mark where the mounting holes will exist positioned. Drill advisable-sized hole(s) for the mounting hardware. Earlier starting to drill pigsty(s), check behind locations to insure nothing will be damaged while drilling light mounting holes.
Mount the lights with the provided hardware, being sure not to over tighten the hardware (you will need to adjust them in Footstep iv). Optional mounting brackets (MODLED-BK), clamps (MODCLx-BK), and magnetic mounting systems (WL-MB) are available.
Connect the ground wire of the new low-cal to the ground wire of the quondam light with solder and heat shrink tubing (DWS-ten) or perma-seal butt connectors (PSC-x). Connect the power wire of the new light to the power wire of the erstwhile light with solder and estrus compress tubing (DWS-ten) or perma-seal butt connectors (PSC-x).
If the new LED piece of work light or off road light bar has an ATP or DT connector that you wish to utilize, the corresponding ATP (ATP-MPT) or DT (DT-MPT) pigtails are available.
Finally, aim the lights in the proper management and tighten all the mounting hardware.

Wiring Pigtail westward/o Harness

Find a suitable mounting location that will allow for running wires and mounting the LED light(s). Lay out and mark where the mounting holes will be positioned. Drill appropriate-sized hole(s) for the mounting hardware. Earlier starting to drill pigsty(s), check backside locations to insure nothing volition be damaged while drilling low-cal mounting holes.
Mount the lights with the provided hardware, being sure not to over tighten the hardware (you lot will need to accommodate them in Step 6). Optional mounting brackets (MODLED-BK), clamps (MODCLx-BK), and magnetic mounting systems (WL-MB) are available.
Road the wiring from the bombardment to the lite(s) in a safe, secure manner. Connect the negative wire to the blackness wire of the pigtail (DT-MPT or ATP-MPT). Connect the positive wire to the input terminal of the switch. So connect the output terminal of the switch to the red wire of the pigtail (DT-MPT or ATP-MPT). Exist sure to avoid heat sources and any moving parts while running your wires. Prolonged chafing of the wires may lead to a short in the circuit. Typically, following the vehicle manufacturer'south wire harness is a safe path to follow.
Continue to route wires to the desired location of the switch (RS-x, RRS-SPx, or WRRS-SPR). An optional, remote-controlled switch (RCS-RF25A) tin can be utilized to speed up the time of an install and avert routing wires through the firewall. Be certain to double bank check for all obstructions and proper clearance. Drill an appropriate sized hole for the switch. Connect the wires to the switch and mount the switch.
Connect the ground wire to the negative battery terminal. So connect the other terminal of the switch to the positive bombardment last with an appropriately-sized fuse holder (WMFH) and fuse (MAF-x), installed within 18 inches of the battery.
Finally, aim the lights in the proper direction and tighten all the mounting hardware.
