INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

TOOLS NEEDED: 

Wire Cutter / Wire Stripper
1-1/8” Hole Saw
Power Drill

FLUSH MOUNT

1) Find a location where you want to mount the controller, make sure you have enough clearance 
away from any wire, fuel or brake lines and having at least 2 inches of mounting depth.
2) Use a 1-1/8 inch hole saw to make a hole where you want to locate the controller.
3) Use the supplied foam gasket to give a waterproof seal and the plastic threaded nut (Fig.3 ) 
to secure the controller in place. Hand tighten in place so the controller does not spin or turn.

UNDERDASH/SURFACE MOUNT

1) Find a location where you want to mount the controller, make sure you have enough 
clearance away from any wire, fuel or brake lines and having at least 2 inches of mounting 
depth behind the controller. The controller can be mounted either under or above the dash.  
2) Use the surface mount mounting bracket (Fig. 2). Attach to the controller and secure it in 
place with the plastic threaded nut, turn the controller to make sure the power button is at the 
12 o’clock position from where it will be mounting to. Then tighten by hand.
3) Use the (2) supplied screws to mount it through the holes on either side of the bracket.

WIRING

1) Connect the red power wire to either the battery or a switched power source.
2) Connect the black ground wire to either a chassis ground or directly to the battery (on 
most off road, marine, motorcycles and recreation vehicles the battery ground will be the best 
location to get your grounding point from).
3) Connect the orange wire to the remote turn-on lead of your amp. This will turn your amp on 
and off from the XL-50BT.
4) Connect the red and white RCA output jacks to your amps input jacks. Use the supplied RCA 
to 3.5mm signal adapter, if your amp uses a 3.5mm audio input.
5) Connect the USB cable to charge most music devices.
