How To Install Wiring For 509 Ignite Helmet On 2014 SkiDoo Freeride
The plunt cut wires that come out of the firewall. Just be careful. One of them is ACC power for plow accessories.
Hello and thank you for your. I am new at this so I need advice. I just purchased nilight. LED strips for the inside of my bed of my 2015 Ford F250 how do I connect the red lead with the in-line fuse? Where does that go?
Your power wire for the light strips will just need to be connected to one of the wires from the upfitter switches. You can either connect it in the engine bay, and then splice the pass through wire to the switch, or run it into the cab and go directly to the wire from the switch. You do not need whatever fuse your light kit came with, as the upfitter switches are already a fused power source. If you watch my video on installing the light bar on my truck, it explains this in more detail. How To Easily Wire A Lightbar Or Other Accessories To Your Super Duty Upfitter Switches! ua-cam.com/video/ZlTi7QzsfLE/v-deo.html
Nothing can stop the power of a V10 triton engine
Great video man thank you!
Really good vid man! If I’m following this right the black wire from the light bar can be short to go to whatever ground spot you see fit/create?
Yes, so long as it’s a good clean surface that you’re grounding to. Thanks for watching!
Really good diy man, my rig came with the switches but came here from your light bar vid just to see the process
@@nombr awesome! Thanks for watching man!
I did the MGW on my 2016 Roush Mustang. I am not in the mood to do it again on my 2017 GT350, which I think shifts just fine. I did get the Billetworkz weighted shifter ball and reverse lockout. The short throw is not what I thought it would be. I always thought i had to wrestle it. But the MGW is well made!
I wouldn’t worry about doing it on a GT350 unless you were absolutely bored. You have a totally different transmission and shifter mounting in that, than you do in a GT.

Super dope video. I used the same projector and methods when I did my headlights years ago. They’re still holding up fine til this day
Thanks! I actually built these and have had them on the truck for about a year now. Still working great, and so much better light output than stock. It just took me a while to put the video clips together 😂
Help I installed them and the turn signal isn’t working 😭
Did you hook up the little black box thing? So long as it is hooked up, and everything is plugged in, I don’t see why it wouldn’t be working unless the unit is faulty. Are both signals not functioning, or just on one unit?
Just remember, I can actually see through snow, fog, rain, etc as well as see the wet highway with my halogens. With 6500k leds the wet road just becomes black and the others have a ton of refraction and blind you. Also I can turn off my auxiliary halogens and still see what I'm looking at. Now on the other hand if you put some yellow or amber tint over that light bar, that might be a different story. You'd be able to see well with all the things I mentioned. But, dirty slush on the road will still freeze to your light bar and greatly reduce the effectiveness. And my halogens shine a further distance. On the down side with the halogens, they use a lot more amperage. At least I have a 150 amp alternator. Side note, if you're not using a wiring harness with a fuse and a relay, you really should be. The Eyourlife harness on amazon is pretty good, you'll probably have to extend some wires but that's easy.
@@lumpyzx2645 I have a video of the entire install. I ran 4 light force lights on a previous truck for years before light bars took off, and there’s zero chance I would ever go back. The light output of halogens is horrible, and the amperage draw is as well. I’ve lived in Alaska for nearly 30 years, so I have a good grasp on what works in various inclement weather
You accidentally ordered the kit for trucks that didn’t come factory with them, if you ordered the kit where they came factory it woulda been easy
That makes a lot of sense. I swear that was the only option they had when I ordered, but I’m sure I missed it 🤦🏻♂️
Great video series, very informative and helpful. I just bought one of these myself. Cheers
Thanks! Hopefully you have good luck with yours! I’ll have some more videos on this thing probably next spring. I ended up having a couple small issues with it, and then got sidetracked on my new SeaDoo Speedster project.
Great job man! I'm amazed that you got that replacement seat cover on that tight. I have the same ski in the same year and I'm working on it now. What did you do to the front plastic hatch cover to get it that shiny again?
For the seat cover, just make sure to keep everything pulled tight and really work all the wrinkles out toward the edges and then staple it tight. You could also use a heat gun to make it easier to form and work with. I did not use a heat gun when I did mine though, so I don’t think it’s 100% necessary. For the plastic hatch cover, I just took a cutting compound, buffed it with that, then polished it, and finally waxed it. It looks better on the video than it does in person I will say that 😂
Did you use spray adhesive when putting on the seat covers?
No. You definitely could, and it would probably make things easier. I personally try to avoid it so that in the event it gets changed again, it doesn’t rip chunks out of the foam
Looks like she is almost ready to settle down

Looks like one of your winter videos should be "how to fix your regret of buying a cheap press" and weld some better feet on that rickety thing
No kidding 🤦🏻♂️
I bought one exactly like it last year, 2023 and it’s super fun to ride and drive. Hope you have good luck with yours.
Is yours a 95 as well? From what I understand, it’s the only year where they had one inlet to feed both pumps. Currently that’s my biggest issue is trying to figure out the cavitation problems it’s having. Well that, and some questionable wiring 🤦🏻♂️
Awesome video! Thank you for posting this information. Very helpful for installing these switches and relay assembly.
Absolutely! Glad it helped!
If you don’t mind me asking how much did you pick it up for?
$2200. Depending where you’re at it may be a good deal or not. In Alaska, it’s definitely a good deal as boats like this are not as common, thus fewer are for sale.
Man this is really helpful. I've wanted to put in my own radio and switches, but I've been a little intimidated because I'm not a car guy. This makes it understandable. I think I can do it.
You can for sure! It’s really not too terrible. Just take your time
This video is the best I have found to use as reference for installing upfitter switches in my 2011 Ford F250. Thanks!!
No problem! That’s great to hear!
Did you ever upload the review and test drive? I didn’t see it
I know the yamaha/honda outboard jets I delt with had a liner/impeller combo. For those we had top/bottom shims to reshim/ restack as the impeller wore into the liner. Is it the same with this style? I saw a thick bottom washer, which might be the shim. Awesom video. Keep them coming!
No shims on these ones. The large washer just sandwiches that destroyed pancake bearing against the pump housing. Probably a little different setup than an outboard jet. Can’t say I’ve ever worked on one of those.
@akgearhead makes sense. Hopefully you get parts in record time!
Right on bud. Pumped it was the pump!!
Me too! Absolutely stoked it wasn’t something worse 🤘🏼
Nice and crusty

What do ya think the top speed of Joker will be once he is running??
Should be around 55-60 mph
I have to be honest, the stock shifter is a little more robust than I thought.
It absolutely is, and I think it gets a bad rap just from people that don’t know how to properly shift. Only time I had issues was during high RPM drag racing. I would get terrible lockout usually going into third, and the MGW has completely gotten rid of that issue.
Wow! What a transformation! You did great work renewing that Yamaha jetski, John.
Thanks!
This video was very entertaining...suspenseful there at the lake!
If it isn’t the starter then something is bent! Crank, rod? Did you check the shaft to see if it’s stuck in any way? Good look. Cool project. I had a new sportstr when I was growing up
Haven’t dug into it extensively yet. That’s the plan for today. I’ll probably swap the starter over from the known good motor. The shafts both have a ton of grass and debris wrapped up in them, so hopefully it’s just jammed up. I had that happen on my Polaris Jetski. Hoping it’s a simple fix and not internal engine failure, but it is what it is.
That right motor judging off the color of the pipe looks like it overheated. I would test compression.
That is most likely going to end up being the case. Not too terribly worried about it though. I did buy it with the realization that the one engine would probably need rebuilt
"Joker" sounds like a good name. I'm looking forward to its transformation!
Heck yeah! 🤘🏼
Someone forgot to slap the mounts and say "she aint going anywhere"
I can assure you the mounts weren’t forgotten. We hung it off the back, and said awww yeah she weighs enough it ain’t going nowhere
That's why they get bolted on by smart people, or even by dumb people who watch how smart people do things.
We had too many outboards. Needed to get rid of one
@@akgearhead that's gotta be good for the environment
@akgearhead one fun way to do it!
@@andrewcaddick3386you should’ve seen the detached fuel line dumping after it sank
She will be missed
We will rebuild ✊🏼
where did you get that 3 outlet fuyel pump?
eBay
Thank you
Can you still use back up camera after taking out reverse lockout ?
Yes. There’s zero wiring attached to the reverse lockout
just saw this video come up after I installed mine, personally mine came with screw installation, maybe factory messed yours up
Yup, I am 99% sure that they did. Either that or I got some outdated model. Either way, it was not an ideal way to install it.
@@akgearhead yeah, my mustang didn’t come with the factory spoiler, so I had to drill into my trunk, I could only install the outside 2 screws, the 2 inside screws were nearly impossible to fit
Why is it all fish eyed
360 camera
Just got one of these and never again
You’ve had some issues I’m guessing? 😂
Could one assemble this all on the trans if I have the trans out of the car?? 🤔🤔
I don’t see why you couldn’t honestly.
@@akgearhead I’ll let you know how it goes! Appreciate the solid video sir
how do you remove the auto-cock? like how are the fuel lines re routed?
In the factory form, it just runs in line from your fuel filter to your fuel pump, and then has a pulse line that goes to the crankcase. You just cap that opening on the crank case, remove the auto cock, and run a new long piece of fuel line from the fuel filter to the fuel pump, replacing the short piece that was originally on either side of the auto cock.
STEAM removes creases.
Yee
Thanks! Looks way easier than I thought!!
No problem! Finding the plug is the hard part. After that it’s relatively easy for sure.
Nice! Our van is down for repairs at the moment so I bought a 2014 f250 extended cab and I'm looking for simple upgrades to make it more functional. Thanks man!
Heck yeah!
