ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION — VEHICLE SIDE
7. Remove the front signal lamp assembly from
both sides of the vehicle. On the driver's side,
feed the violet (turn lamp) and gray (run lamp)
wires from the main lighting harness through the
opening in the signal lamp housing. Use a test
light or ohmmeter to determine the proper wires
in the vehicle's electrical system to splice into.
Position one end of the turn or run lamp wire into
the splice lock connector, and attach the vehicle
wire into the opposite side. Complete the splice
by pinching both wires together and locking the
connector. Repeat the splice procedure for the
remaining wire.
8. Repeat Step 7 for passenger's side, using the pink
(turn lamp) and gray (run lamp) wires.
9. Connect the vehicle headlamps to the main
lighting harness using a headlamp conversion
harness kit. Due to di
ff
erences in the construction
of the kits, and the various make and model
vehicles BLIZZARD
®
snowplows are installed on,
a headlamp conversion kit is not packaged with
your snowplow. Contact your local BLIZZARD
outlet to obtain the appropriate conversion
harness kit for your vehicle.
10. Secure the braided harness to the vehicle. Safely
route all harness lengths around the engine
components and attach them to the vehicle
with cable ties. Extend the snowplow headlamp
connectors from the main lighting harness through
the grille of the vehicle and position the harness
power plug and weather cap near the bumper.
Cable tie the plug to the vehicle bumper or tow
hook to keep the harness from hanging too low.
11. Install the remainder of the vehicle wire harness
to the interior of the cab. Connect the power wire
(with 15A fuse) to a switched power source with a
minimum of 15A.
NOTE: The red power wire MUST be fused and
switched ON and OFF with ignition.
Secure all loose wires under the dash.
12. Install the light tower. Position the arms into the
receiving pockets located on the undercarriage.
Each pocket has a lock pin that secures both light
tower arms. Pull out and twist each handle to
temporarily unlock the pins. Place the light tower
into the pockets and relock the pins. See your
local BLIZZARD outlet for complete installation
instructions for your vehicle undercarriage.
13. Install the snowplow headlamps. Align one
headlamp stud on the light tower tube with the
mounting hole and insert the threaded stud
through each. Secure the headlamp with one
1/2" galvanized washer (neoprene facing up), one
7/16" lock washer, and locknut.
NOTE: All snowplows are shipped with two caps
that install on the ends of the light tower.
After adding a liberal amount of dielectric grease,
connect the terminals from the snowplow
headlamps to the terminals on the main lighting
harness.
14. Position the rocker switch/joystick control
station on the front radius of the seat. Wrap the
hook-and-loop fastener strap around the bench,
through the 2" D-ring and fasten. Connect the
white power connector from the vehicle wire
harness to the connector on the control station.
The power switch should be in the middle, or
"OFF," position.
NOTE: The operation of the draw latch can only
be controlled when the POWER switch is located
in the POWER HITCH™ (UP) position and the
RAISE/LOWER rocker switch on the A-frame is in
the NEUTRAL (CENTER), position.
15. After completing the mechanical and electrical
installations, test all snowplow and lighting
functions before attempting to drive or plow.
