1. Extend the awning out completely.
2. Separate the LED connectors at the lead rail. Carefully pull the harness from the wire channel at the
top of the arm.
3. At the awning case:
3.1. Freedom WM:
The wire is routed with the motor wire. To access the wire, it will be necessary to
remove the outer end cap from the motor side.
3.2. Clip the harness.
3.3. Clamp the harness going into the vehicle to prevent it from falling in the vehicle wall.
4. Connect the new harness to the LED strip.
5. Route the harness through the wire channel. At the arm joints, arch the cable slightly to avoid binding.
Tip: Use a small tool, such as a flat bladed screwdriver, to gently spread open the channel then insert
the cable into the channel. Do this for the entire length of the channel until the cable is fully inserted.
6. At the vehicle wall:
6.1. Route the new harness through the wall to the switch or dimmer module.
Tip: Tie the new harness to the old harness that was cut previously. Use the old harness to pull the
new harness through the wall to the desired location.
6.2. Seal the wall entrance hole and harness with a quality silicone sealant.
6.3. Connect the new harness to the switch. Two (2) .187, 18-24 awg female disconnects are provided if
connecting to a switch.
6.4.
Alternate method:
At the wall, splice the new harness to the existing harness using 24 awg butt
connectors. Push the connectors into the vehicle wall. Seal the wall entrance hole and wires with a
quality silicone sealant.
NOTE: Be sure to allow enough harness from the arm to provide a slack in the harness and adequate
length for the connectors to be pushed inside the wall before sealing the hole and harness with a quality
silicone sealant.
