2. There are two options to properly connect the RECON LED 3
rd Brake Lamp to your O.E. wires
if you do not want to simply plug the RECON LED 3 rd Brake Lamp into your O.E. plug or if
after plugging it in the RECON LED 3 rd brake light doesn’t work properly:
Option 1: Cut off your O.E. connector plug, and connect the wires of your new RECON LED 3 rd
Brake Lamp to your O.E. wires as depicted in the chart above.
Option 2: If you want to retain your O.E. connector plug, you must splice the wires a few inches
before the O.E. connector plug by peeling back the O.E. wire covering/insulation.
4. If your vehicle has only 3 wires going into your O.E. connector plug, then please connect the
No.2 and No.4 wires coming out of the back of your new RECON LED 3 rd Brake Lamp
together with your common O.E. ground.
