IMPORTANT WIRING NOTES:
1.
Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high current wires it is highly recom
-
mended that terminal blocks or soldered connections be used with heat shrink tubing to protect the connections.
2.
Route wiring using grommets and sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number of splices to
reduce voltage drop.
NOTE:
High ambient temperatures (e.g. under hood) will significantly reduce the current carrying
capacity of wires, fuses,and circuit breakers.
All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size and other recommendations
of the manufacturer and be protected from moving parts and hot surfaces. Looms, grommets, cable ties, and similar installation
hardware should be used to anchor and protect all wiring.
3. Fuses or circuit breakers should be located as close to the power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the
wiring and devices.
4.
Particular attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connections and splices to protect these
points from corrosion and loss of conductivity.
5. Ground terminations should only be made to substantial chassis components, preferably directly to the vehicle battery.
6.
Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high temperatures and will “false trip” when mounted in hot environments or operated
close to their capacity.
Important:
This unit is a safety device, and it must be connected to its own separate, fused power point to assure
its continued operation should any other electrical accessory fail.
Wiring Instructions:
It is advisable to leave an extra loop of cable when installing the light bar to allow for future changes or reinstallations.
Connect the black lead to a solid frame ground (earth), preferably the (-) or ground (earth) side of the battery, and the
power wire to the +12V terminal of the battery. Connect the remaining wires as shown on below.
