WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR 32-3885L:
WESTIN recommends using a professional for this installation.
CAUTION:
1.
Disconnect ground connection from battery (-) to avoid accidental short circuits before attempting to connect electrical
wires.
2.
When running wires, avoid areas of excessive heat, vibration, pinch or rotation when securing harness to vehicle.
3.
Always use a fused (+) positive supply source.
4.
This light becomes hot under continuous use. Do not remove or touch the casting for at least 30 minutes after the lamp has
been turned off.
Refer to Figure 11.
1.
Locate wiring harness and mount the switch in a convenient location where it is easily accessible from the drivers seat.
Note: The switch will need to be removed from the wiring harness so that the rest of the harness can be routed from
the engine bay to the cabin.
2.
Route the wiring harness wire, specifically the fuse and relay, from the positive battery terminal along the firewalls exist-
ing wire routes. Note: Tape as necessary to correct slack.
3.
Secure the relay by either drilling or using a pre-existing bolt along the chassis that is not connected to any other wire.
4.
Run the switch harness through the firewall preferably through the pre-existing rubber plug that is used to run the OEM
wiring harness from the engine bay to fuse box. Note: Reconnect the switch to the wiring harness.
5.
Place the LED plug wire along the fender chassis where it will not get pinched and away from any moving parts (fan, pul-
leys etc.).
6.
Run the attached wire from the LED Light Bar as previously mentioned away from any moving parts.
7.
Connect both ends of wiring connectors from LED light bar and wiring harness.
8.
Re-connect battery terminals, attach the Red (+) wire to battery positive, and the black (-) wire to ground. Note: Add die-
lectric grease (not supplied).
9.
Turn on the switch to make sure if the lamp works. If not, please check carefully if the wiring installation is correct.
