HARNESS

INSTALLATION

3.

Run the PIAA harness from the engine compartment next to
the battery back to the PIAA back-up lamp. Run the switch into
the drivers compartment and mount it in a location that is easy
for the driver to control and so that it is out of the way of
other automotive functions.

Before connecting any wires disconnect the negative (-)
battery terminal.

When installing the harness follow the wiring diagram and make
connections as instructed.

Connect the harness to the lamp.

Connect the lamp ground(-) wire to chassy ground. This
connection should be metal to metal. Scrape all rust,
paint, dirt and undercoating from the connection location.

Connect the switch power(+) wire to a positive(+) lead for the
reverse lights. To do so use the supplied connector or any
connector that is suitable for this application.

For proper lamp operation it is recommended that the main
positive(+) and negative(-) wires be connected directly to the
battery terminals.

After all wires are connected test the system for operation.

If the switch is in position ON1 the PIAA back-up lamp will be on.

If the switch is in position ON2 the PIAA back up lamp will only
come on when the vehicle is in reverse and the vehicles factory
reverse lights are on.

If the switch in the OFF position the PIAA back-up lamp system
will be off.

After checking the system for proper operation secure the PIAA
harness with wire ties or other means to keep it away from moving
vehicle components, hot components and to keep it from
dragging on the ground.

If the system does not operate properly contact your PIAA dealer
for assistance.
