Coach Controls Pro-Street User manual

Pro-Street Wiring Kit Installation
The Pro-Street Switch Panel can control Ignition, Accessory, and Start, one or two Fuel
Pumps, Water Pump and Fan, one or two Nitrous Systems with independent Purge, all Lights, Turn
Signals, and Horn Two wiring diagrams are available for this kit One diagram (part number
200898) shows the connections for a GM street style steering column with built-in turn signal switch
and horn button The other diagram (part number 200899) applies to vehicles with competition style
steering columns that don't have a turn signal switch or horn button
Most of the switches on the Switch Panel can control two separate functions by pressing up or
down In many cases when the switch is in the up position only one function will be turned on, but in
the down position both functions will turn on Operating the Accessory Switch turns on Accessory
power only but in the down position both Ignition and Accessory power are turned on
The Fuel Pump switch will operate only when Ignition is on Fuel Pump 1 can be turned on
alone but the Fuel Pump 2 switch turns on both fuel pumps In a similar way, the Water Pump can
operated alone, but the Fan switch turns on both the Fan and Water Pump The Water Pump switch
is generally used for gradual engine warm-up or cool-down whereas the Fan is used only for max
cooling
The Interior Switch is used to turn on only the LED lamps on the back of the Switch Panel
In the down position, the Lights Switch can be used to turn on headlights, running lights, and dash
lights, but does not turn on the Interior LED lights The wiring diagram shows how a dimmer switch
can be used as a separate headlight switch
The Turn Signal switch on the Switch Panel provides basic left and right turn signals and
brake lights when connected according to wiring diagram 200899 In this configuration brake lights
will override turn signals If you apply the brakes with turn signals on, no signal lights will flash, only
brake lights will activate However, if you have a street-style steering column with built-in turn signal
switch and connected according to wiring diagram 200898, turn signals and brake lights will operate
in the conventional way where turn signals override brake lights
The Switch Panel Nitrous switches provide Arm and Purge control for up to two Nitrous kits
These switches provide ground triggers for nitrous solenoids Refer to the nitrous system
manufacture's instructions for proper connections When wired correctly the Arm switch should
activate the arming solenoid and the momentary Purge switch should activate both the arm and
purge solenoids A fuse on the back of the Switch Panel provides protection against overloads and
shorts on the Arm and Purge nitrous outputs Check this fuse if the Arm or Purge fail to operate

1. IMPORTANT – READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS EFORE YOU EGIN
The electrical system is a critical component affecting both the operation and safety of your vehicle It
is important to have the proper tools and equipment to install your wiring kit, but it is equally important that
you have knowledge and experience with automotive electrical systems You should be familiar with voltage,
current, and resistance, and how to use a volt/ohm meter and clamp-on current meter to measure these basic
parameters If you do not feel you have the necessary tools, knowledge, and experience, Coach Controls
strongly recommends that you get professional assistance with your wiring project
SPECIAL TOOLS REQUIRED
Proper wire terminations are essential for the safety, operation, and long term durability of your
vehicle’s electrical system To install this wire kit you will need a heat gun and a quality crimp tool
A closed barrel crimp tool such as the one shown should be used to crimp the non-insulated closed
barrel terminals provided in this kit Note that the wire insulation butts up firmly against the terminal and
that the crimp tool creates a dimple in the terminal, securing the conductor without breaking any strands Use
a heat gun and a piece of heat shrinkable sleeving included in the kit to insulate each crimped closed barrel
terminal Once the sleeving is heated and shrunk it should be tight around the terminal and the wire
insulation In this way the sleeving acts not only as an insulator but also as a strain relief to minimize bending
of the conductor at the crimped connection
2. MOUNTING AND GROUNDING
MAKE SURE THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE PROCEEDING The Switch
Panel, Power Center, 100 amp fuse holders, steering column, battery, lights, and all other electrical
equipment should be mounted before you begin installing the wiring The Power Center must be mounted in
a dry location It is normal for relays to get a little warm during continuous use so the Power Center should
be mounted where air can circulate around the unit The 100 amp fuse holders should be mounted near the
battery and at least 6” away from exhaust
Connect the negative side of the battery to the engine block if possible as well as to the chassis using
battery cable (not supplied) and 3/8” bolts and tooth washers If grounding the battery to the engine block is
not practical, connect both the battery and engine to the chassis with battery cable, bolts, and tooth washers
Metal must be clean, free from rust and paint where the connection is made If the body of your vehicle is
metal, it too must be grounded to the chassis using at least 8 awg wire and 1/4” bolts and tooth washers If
you have a fiberglass body, mount one or more ground studs and terminal blocks inside the cabin for
convenient ground points Use at least 8 awg wire to connect all your ground points to clean steel chassis
Two 100 amp MIDI fuse holders and fuses are included with this kit One of the 100 amp fuses
protects the wires connecting the battery and alternator, the other protects the Power Center TWO
SEPARATE 10 AWG WIRES SUPPLY BATTERY POWER TO THE POWER CENTER BE SURE TO
Proper Closed arrel Crimp Closed arrel Crimp Tool

CONNECT ONE FROM EACH SIDE OF THE POWER CENTER TO THE 100 AMP FUSE AS
SHOWN IN THE WIRING DIAGRAM
Plug the Switch Panel Cable into the 12 pin connector located at the top of the Power Center
Connect the other multi-conductor cable to the 8 pin connector Refer to the wiring diagram supplied with
this kit as well as the wiring information supplied with all your various accessories and route all wires,
including grounds, before making any final connections Use rubber grommets whenever wires pass through
metal openings and don’t allow wires to touch sharp corners Additional detailed diagrams can be
downloaded and printed from our website
Dress your harness by starting in the middle and working your way toward the ends of cable bundles,
keeping wires parallel for a neat appearance Dress the wires to each accessory working from the cable
bundle, making sure to leave some slack (service loop) when you make the final terminations
3. TESTING
Once you have completed installation of your wire kit, make sure the ignition switch and all
accessories are turned OFF and the battery is disconnected Using a higher amp rated fuse than indicated can
cause serious, irreparable damage IF YOU BLOW A FUSE ALWAYS REPLACE THE FUSE WITH THE
SAME AMP RATING
a Turn on the Master Disconnect Switch and use an ohm meter to check for shorts between the positive and
negative battery cable terminals Resistance should be greater than 100 ohms A reading of less than 100
ohms indicates a possible serious short or wiring error that must be investigated and corrected before
proceeding Otherwise, connect your battery to begin testing the system
b Verify the brake lights illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed Verify the horn
c Turn on the Interior Lights switch (up) Verify the Switch Panel rear LED interior lights come on
d Turn on the Lights (switch down) Verify the LED interior lights turn off and headlights, dash lights, and
running lights illuminate
e Turn on the Water Pump (switch up) and verify it operates
f Turn on the Fan (switch down) and verify both the water pump and cooling fan operate
g CAUTION: With your foot on the brake, Ignition Off, and the vehicle in neutral or park or clutch
depressed, momentarily bump the Start switch and verify the starter engages Disconnect the battery if the
starter continues when the Start switch is released This is commonly caused by a defective starter or starter
solenoid, or an improperly rebuilt starter You should also check the neutral safety function by putting the
transmission shifter in gear and verifying that the starter will not operate
h Turn on Accy power (switch up) Verify windshield wipers operate as well as any equipment (transbrake
shown on wiring diagram) connected to the Accy Pwr output stud Fuel Pump(s) should not turn on
i Turn on Ignition (switch down) Wiper and Accy Pwr should remain on Verify the blue ignition indicator
on the Power Center illuminates
j Fuel Pump 1 should turn on with the Fuel 1 switch (up) and both fuel pumps should operate with the Fuel2
switch (down)
k Verify left and right turn signals operate
l Verify the function of NOS1 and NOS2 switches In the down position each switch should ground the Arm
terminal on the rear of the panel In the up position both Arm and Purge terminals should be grounded,
controlling nitrous system Arm and Purge solenoids
