Activation switch for the 6J3 or 6J7 option
To mount and wire the flasher:
1.
Select a mounting location on the sheet metal below the passenger-side front head lamps and forward
of the passenger-side front head lamp. DO NOT mount the flasher directly on the engine or close to
the exhaust system.
2.
Use the flasher as a template to mark the center of the two mounting holes.
DRILLING PRECAUTION—When drilling holes, check the area into which
you are drilling to be sure you do not damage vehicle components while
drilling. All drilled holes should be de-burred and all holes should be
smooth. All wire routing going through drilled holes should be protected
by a grommet or convolute/split loom tubing.
3.
Drill the two holes and use the installer-supplied mounting hardware to mount the flasher.
4.
In the front passenger-side wheel well, disconnect the harness plugs to the forward lamp. Connect the
plugs to their matching plugs on the flasher.
5.
For the 6J3 or 6J7 option, locate the GREEN/RED activation wire under the dash between the foot
wells. Connect one terminal of the wire to one terminal of the installer-supplied activation switch.
6.
Connect the other terminal of the activation switch to a source of +12 Vdc power.
