LED MODULE INSTALLATION:
• REMOVE THE LENSES
• Remove the screws holding the lenses in place. Take care not to lose the O-rings, as they help seal the lightbar from
the rain.
• Carefully remove the lenses. Starting at one corner, lift the lenses up, then work around the bases.
• The lenses, while tough, can scratch easily. Set them someplace safe.
• CHOOSE LED MODULES’ LOCATIONS IN LIGHTBAR
• PREPARE MODULES’ LOCATIONS IN LIGHTBAR
• Remove P-Clips, if necessary. The P-clips take the place of the warning modules in some lightbars. If the P-clips are
replaced with light modules, they do not have to be relocated in the lightbar and may be discarded.
BAD GOOD
• MOUNT MODULES USING SUPPLIED HARDWARE
• Align the modules with the screw hole patterns in the lightbar base. There are bosses that help align the modules as
the screws are added.
• Attach the modules using the screws as per the diagram above. The plastite screws are used in the end of the bar,
and the machine screws are used in the front/back facing modules. For all screws, torque the screws to 8(+/-1) in-lbs.
• Wire the modules per the following sections.
• Connect the provided harness to the PCB driver board in one of the locations not taken up by another module. If the location
has a jumper, remove it. Check the diagram below for rough module location.
• If you are placing the harness into an unoccupied location, you will need to place a jumper(provided) beside the har-
ness location. NOTE: Do not place two jumpers side-by-side in the same location.
WARNING MODULES:

Alley/Takedown/Worklight LED Modules:
• Route the harness from the driver board, under the base arches if necessary, to the warning module.
• Repeat above until all warning modules are connected.
• Supply the lightbar with 12VDC.
• Cyclethroughtheashpatternstodetermineiftheplacement/wiringofthewarningmodulesiscorrect.
• If the lightbar is equipped with a hand held controller, press the POWER 1 button. If the lightbar is not equipped
withacontroller,connectthebrownwireonthecontrolcabletothe+V.Thelaststoredashpatternshouldstart.
• PressthePATTERNSELECTbuttonortouchthevioletwiretoadvancetheashpattern.
• Note the operation of the newly installed warning modules. If the warning modules’ connections need to be moved,
you can do so without turning the lightbar off.
• NOTE:Ifanywarningmoduleisnotashingatall,checkthatitsconnectionsaresecureandthat
there is either another warning module or a jumper in the conicident driver connection.
• Oncethelightbarisashingasdesired,removeitfromthepowersource.
• Connect the module to the driver board using the provided harness. The driver is labeled with the light functions. Be sure to run
the harness under the base arches if necessary.
• For alley lights, use locations J21 and J22(ALLEY RHT and ALLEY LEFT).
• For worklights/takedown lights, use locations J23 and J24(WORK LIGHTS).
• Supply the lightbar with 12VDC.
• Test LED module operation. If the lightbar has a controller, use the buttons to check light function. If it does not have a control-
ler,refertothewiringdiagramforclarication.
Stop/Tail/Turn LED Modules:
• STT Driver
• PlacetheSTTDriverinthelocationandorientationasshowninthefollowinggure.UsetheprovidedPlastitescrews
to attach the driver to the lightbar.
• STT Power Cord
• The STT power cord’s connector is too large to pass through the wire exit with other cables. Pass the cord through
the wire exit from the inside out, then connect the cord to the STT driver board connector.
• STT LED modules
• Connect the STT LED modules to the STT driver using the supplied harnesses. The ends with the ferrites connect to
the driver. Be sure to route the harnesses under the arches between the base sections.
• Test the STT features using 12VDC. Refer to the wiring diagram.
• SECURE THE HARNESS WIRES
• Tuck the slack of the wire harnesses into the wire channels. Be careful to avoid having any part of the harness over
the top edge, as it will become pinched when the lens is reattached.

AUXILIARY DRIVER INSTALLATION
• REMOVE THE LENSES
• Remove the lenses per the LED MODULE INSTALLATION instructions above.
• CHOOSE AUXILIARY DRIVER LOCATION IN LIGHTBAR
• Place the Auxiliary Driver in one of the available mounting locations shown.
• Attach the driver using the provided screw. Torque the screw to 8(+/-1) in-lbs. or roughly hand tight. Do not over-torque the screw.
• CONNECT WARNING MODULES TO AUXILIARY DRIVER
• Use the provided harness wires to connect the auxiliary driver to the main lightbar driver board. Route all harnesses under the base
sections as necessary. The connections are printed on the PCA:
• Connect AUX DRIVER 2A MAX on the main driver to POWER on the auxiliary driver.
• Connect DRIVER JUMPER on the main driver to SIGNAL on the auxiliary driver.
• IMPORTANT: Misconnecting these wires with power supplied will result in lightbar damage. Check connections
carefully before testing lightbar operation.
• Usetheharnessesincludedwiththewarningmodulestoconnecttotheauxiliarydriverboard.Theaddedwarningmoduleswillash
per the Warning Module Diagram.
• TEST WARNING MODULES’ OPERATION
• Test per the LED MODULE INSTALLATION instruction above.
• REPLACE THE LENSES
• Replace the lenses per the LED MODULE INSTALLATION instruction above.
REPLACE THE LENSES
• Gently work the lenses back onto the bases, the reverse of removal. Avoid scraping the gasket ringing the base sections.
