- In this video I show the location of the wiring for the upfitter aux switches on a ford superduty. I attribute my successes to god and give him the glory.
Switch 1 is 25 amp and yellow
Switch 2 is 25 amp and green - brown
Switch 3 is 10 amp and violet - green
Switch 4 is 10 amp and brown
Just got a 2016 and you explained in 6 minutes what I was trying to find out the past two weeks. You are a saint and bless you. Don't think you'll make a vid relevant to me again but subbed anyways.
Thank you, I appreciate your support. I’m glad I could help.
Excellent video. I must have looked at 10 different videos where I just wanted to know where to find the 4 wires. Your video was an excellent easy to understrand video that gave me exactly what I was looking for. Thanks
No problem, glad I could help.
Sw 1 and 2 are 25amp, sw3 and 4 are 10 and 15 amp...I do believe...all 4 are switched hot...any negative connection can be clean chasis ground
Hi sir where is the fuse located for aux 3
@hillbillygarage6051 it is f9 in the bcm which is in the passenger footwell. knigaproavto.ru/shemy/en/amp/Super_Duty_11-16.html
Thanks Jason. We have an 08 F350 work truck and I'm pretty knowledgeable of wiring things up, but you just saved me quiet a bit of time I would have spent to figure out how to pull the switch panel out to hook up directly to the switches, when we hook up our strobe lights. Following now.
No problem glad I could help
Thanks. UA-cam GIY guide saves the day once again.
Wiring in a strobe bar on a 16 450, thank you sooooo much, saved me time and headache!
I am laughing at my self right now! 😆 If I had seen this video before I started wiring my fog lights in, there is a couple things I could have took from your video already that could have made it easier. Can I ask UA-cam to put this at the front end of the "Upliffter switches F-350" search?!! Great video, thanks, and the info here will help me finish up the job. Just wish I came across this sooner.
Thanks for the tip guy saves me a lot of aggravation
so you tap the positive of your light into 1 of the 4 factory aux switch wires (in your video) and then just run the ground from the light to any ground surface on the truck? thanks
Yes. Make sure you get a quality light. Some of the cheaper led lights will cause static on the radio
Thank you for this great info I was breaking my head do in this I I prefer do electrical in houses and building🤦♂️ than cars but thanks this video help me a lot 🤓✌️
I hate working under the dash too. People just don’t fit easily under there. They make a creeper type thing that is basically a board with one side stand that you put the other end on the floor at the door and you can lay on it so your laying outside the vehicle at the floor level.
Really appreciate the clear concise direction. subscribed. Thank You.
Thank you. I appreciate you subscribing.
Thanx for the tip! Was a Great Help to me!
Thank you, wonder why they wouldn't just terminate them in the engine bay?!
Because you might be running interior or rear bound accessories (cb, rear work lights, inverter, etc) that's why they give you the firewall pass through wires as well.
Just wanted to say thanks very easy to follow instructions and pleased to see you took the time to help in the comments below..i have subscribed.
Thank you, I try to help when I can. I appreciate you subscribing.
Great Video! I literally could not find this information out anywhere else. Thanks!
Thank you, Glad I could help. I appreciate you watching.
thanks buddy saved me alot of time i subscribed
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Thanks Jason, very handy info
Aux 1 just stop working on me today. I looked on the manual. Showing a relay for it and a fuse. Checked both not working. Although the light does not come on at all on the switch.
Really good video man, I’ve been searching for a vid like this of a while! Thanks for making this !
No problem. Glad I could help. Thank you for watching it.
I have another question. If I’m working on wiring a light bar, do I just run the positive/hot up to one of those up fitter wires, and ground somewhere on the chassis?
Yes you can do that.
I think any question anyone could have on this subject is addressed in the comments and replys! He'll of a job uploader!
Thank you, I like to help if I can. I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.
Could you explain better, what colors are for which switch? There's aux 1, 2, 3, and 4. So, there should be 4 hots and a ground. What colors are the hots?
Switch 1 is the yellow wire and 25 amp fused
Switch 2 is green-brown and 25 amp fused
Switch 3 is violet-green and 10 amp fused
Switch 4 is brown and 15 amp fused
I don’t think there is a ground feed in the wiring but you can get a ground from anywhere really
Here’s a link to the wiring diagram it’s the last page for this year range.

@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic dead link :(
When wiring up AUX lights to upfitter switch ires what do you do with the negative wire from AUX lights?
You would just ground the negative wire to the frame, body, or something metal that has continuity to ground. You can go to the ground terminal if you like.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic perfect thanks. Thought so just wanted to make sure. I’ll be installing the upfitters tomorrow. Wish me luck.
Good luck
Why would I have power to 4 wires under steering wheel but no power to wired behind fuse box? I was able to find wires hidden but nothing to any of them.
The 4 wires behind the fuse box are pass through wires. They are just small pieces of wire the go from the inside to the outside so you don’t need to drill a hole in the fire wall and seal the wire and hole. You need to connect one of the switched wires to one of the pass through wires to get power to the wire behind the fuse box. I don’t know why it’s like this but it is.
What trim is the truck you're using? Does the upfitter switches fit into an XL trim truck?
The trim is the XL trim level
Great video if you want to hear I guess I think I don’t know
Do I have to add a relay?
No there are relays already installed on the switches.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic are they fused, and where are the relays, in case I need to diagnose any problems? Thanks, and your video is certainly the best on this topic.
The relays are under the dash on the drivers side, I’m not sure exactly where and the switches are fused. Switch 1 should be f94 and switch 2 should be f95 in the under hood battery fuse block and switch 3 should be f9 and switch 4 should be f2 in the body control module which I believe is in the passenger foot well.
What are them auxs even for
They are for any auxiliary lighting or what ever you want to run off the switched power source. They just help with the step of getting power into the cab and making a switched source that is better looking than a switch mounted in the dash. It’s more for a commercial application but They don’t do anything on there own.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic thanks for the information, I was confused as to why there're, came to UA-cam and there you are with a perfect explanation thanks
Thank you. I’m glad I could help
wire diagram for a super duty Ford
I really need to see the whole video of a super duty dash safety shut off with for the ground wire on the passenger side of a super duty Ford truck
You didn't give any tips you just told us what color wires were
Are you sure? That doesn’t sound like something I would do.
Bozo
Gggg
5 minutes of rambling and I'm still not sure which wires to look for. I need lights on the outside of the truck I don't need that shit under the steering wheel that's not doing anybody any good. Where do you hook up wires under the hood for external lighting
Man, I'm not even going to help you out for talking to him like that. He explained everything a competent human needs to complete the job.
