All options may not be present on all Lightbars.

EXAMPLE:

If you are using the YELLOW, WHITE, & WHITE/ BROWN

function wires, the total amp draw is

ou

7.5 amps. Multiply this by 1.25

which comes out to 9.375 amps. Y

must fuse the RED power wire

at 10 amps.

Power Cable Fusing Chart:

After determining which function wires

you will use, add up the amp rating of each function wire. You must
then multiply this by 1.25 (see warning) and fuse the RED power wire
at this rating.

Wiring Designations:

The control wire functions shown below are given for a general reference only and may not match the

wire designations of your individual lightbar. For the wire functions of the specific lightbar you ordered, refer to the wiring
sheet attached to the instruction manual shipped with the lightbar.
