Installation

This section will explain how to install the Breakaway (included with the Luxor™).

1. Center and attach the Breakaway switch

to a solid part of the chassis (not to any

additionally installed item). Do not

overtighten. Ensure the switch is able to

pivot but does not pivot too freely.

2. Take the red and black wires leading

from the Breakaway switch and route

them through the underside of engine

compartment to the driver’s side firewall.

Secure the wires to non-moving items

through the engine compartment using

wire ties. Note: Keep the wires clear of sharp

edges.

3. Locate a rubber grommet on the firewall to

push the wires through and into the vehicle.

If one is not available, use a ¼” drill bit to

drill through the firewall. Place a rubber

grommet on the new hole to prevent the

wire from stripping later or grounding out.

4. Strip ¼” of insulation from the end of the

wires. Insert the stripped wire end into

the color-coded banana clip (black wire to

black banana clip, red wire to red banana

clip) and tighten the set screw on pin.

Ensure the wire is securely tightened.
