FUSE
1. The black wire is the ground lead and should be connected to a good chassis ground.
2. The purple wire is used for High/Low power selection. Leave it disconnected for
constant high power. Connect it to Ground for constant low power. Connect it to
Ground through a switch for High/Low select.
3. Connect the red wire to the positive side of your power source (+12-24VDC) through
a switch and a 5 Amp fuse. Be sure to check your light for proper voltage.
High/Low Power Settings
There are 3 modes these lights can be set to work in:
• Constant High Power
• Constant Low Power
• Manually Switched High/Low Power
By default all lights are set up for Manually Switched High/Low power. This means that you
can use the Purple wire to control whether the light operates under high power (day mode)
or low power (night mode):
• High Power Only:
Cut the Purple wire short and tape it off.
• Low Power Only:
Connect the Purple wire to Ground.
• Manually Switched High/Low Power:
Connect the Purple wire to Ground through a switch.
CAUTION: All of our DC powered warning lights are polarity sensitive. These
lights are polarity protected only if the appropriate fuse is used. All
wires connected to the positive terminal of the battery should be
fused at the battery for their rated load. Testing the light before
this fuse is properly installed will void the warranty on the light.
