Wiring: Connecting Wires to the Battery
 WARNING! If you are supplying your own wiring that connects to the positive or
negative terminal of the battery, fuse sizes must be sized according to STL's
provided fuse to be considered fused properly to the battery in order to carry the
load.
 Route the power cables by opening the wiring shield and running the cables through it
towards your vehicle's firewall.
 Follow the factory wiring harness through the firewall.
 If it is necessary to drill a hole in the firewall for the power cables, be sure no
components will be damaged from drilling. As with all holes that are drilled, file the
edges down smooth and insert a grommet to protect the cables.
 Route the cable along the factory wiring harness towards the battery.
 Wire your power cables (Red with In Line Fuse (STL Supplied) and Black cable) to your
battery to power up your light bar.
 You will want to ensure your grounding cable is taken directly to the negative terminal of
your battery to avoid any electrical feedback which may disrupt your light bar system.
 DO NOT allow the positive (Red wire) and negative (Black wire) to touch one another.
This may cause injury to you and damage your equipment by causing a short in the unit
that is not covered under the STL warranty.
Wiring: Cigarette Lighter Plug
 If you are using the Cigarette Lighter Plug follow the guidelines for Wiring to get the
cables into the vehicle and plug the Cigarette Lighter Plug into your Cigarette outlet.
Wiring: Connecting Wires to Control Box
 This unit will feature a power harness with three (3) colored leads with a connector that
plugs into the Cigarette Lighter Plug.
 When not utilizing the Cigarette Lighter Plug
reference the Wiring Diagram for
power harness with three (3) colored leads
 Now that you have pulled the cable into the vehicle attach the connector back to your
light bar's wire harness in the CORRECT positions using a pin pusher and plug it into
your Cigarette Lighter Plug. If you do not know the correct position of each wire in the
connector call customer service at 800-757-2581 before proceeding.
 If you are using your own switch box or the STL IntelliSiren, wire the cables accordingly
into your control panel by referencing the wiring diagram and instruction manual of your
control panel.
