I used your video today to wire two Rough Country LED light bars each of which came with their own harness that included a relay but was designed to connect directly to the battery terminals. I wanted to connect each to the Polaris Pulse accessory bar and take advantage of the switched power to avoid battery drain. I removed the ring terminals from the positive and negative leads from each wiring harness and connected them with butt connectors to the red and black wires of Pulse bar pigtails. I then followed your instructions to remove the control wire from the relay where it was connected and reconnected it with a butt connector to the blue wire on the pigtail. After ensuring that everything worked as desired I heated the heat shrink tubing over the butt connectors and zip tied all the extra wire from the harness. I also added some labels to help me keep things straight as I add more accessories. Thanks for the great tips and easy to follow video!
Do you have any advice on how to properly wire a dimmer switch to a single Alpena 15" Terra off-road light bar? Any special preparations/care that I would need to take? What is my simplest and most economical route to take? Any advice would be much appreciated... Thanks!
Great video, thank you 🙂 This worked great, except ☝️ Im trying to hook up 2 switches - front light/back light. My problem is both switches turn on both lights. Im pretty sure its how the switch bank is jumped together but idk. Any ideas? I have 2 switches just like the type you show here (should there be a disclaimer on this video "for single switch only!" ?)
I installed the wiring kit from niteliite, was prewired basically plug n play, so now I have constant power to the rocker switch and the light on the bottom of the rocker stays lit constantly, ita suppose to go on n off with the key. I have switched the wires around every way possible on the back of the rocker switch to try n get it to work with the key on but no luck. The directions said for the key on was to jump the red wire to the #6 on the back of the switch but that just gives it constant power to illuminate the bottom part of the switch. What could possible be wrong here?

Thanks for this video! I've been trying to figure out how to jumper to just accessory power for my ranger!

I wish you could show the back of the switch for reference.
Are you connecting your fuse to the pos battery and the modified switch wire to your key? Also, what wires hook to the 5 pin switch?
Thank you

i got the same issue .. how to wire this to get the led to only come on with keyed ignition
I don’t understand why a 10am fuse gets blown on a 2amp light bar??
I'm guessing if you blew the fuse something is not wired correctly
I want to add my whips and chase bar to my turn signal kit. So do I solder cables after the relay?
