INSTALLATION:
1. Mounting:
• The compartment light can be installed in virtually any orientation using one of two
sets of mounting holes. The mounting holes in the light fixture should be used as a
drill template. Position the fixture in the desired location for installation, and mark
drill locations.
Caution: Before drilling holes, ensure that the mounting surfaces are clear and that the
screws will not damage the internal parts of the vehicle.
Caution: Ensure that the Compartment Light is installed in areas recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer.
Caution: Be sure to use the correct mounting holes as a drill template. The two sets of
mounting holes are spaced differently.
• Drill the mounting holes. Recommended drill size is 9/64 for most applications. It is
the responsibility of the installer to determine if a different drill size is needed for
each specific installation.
• Secure the base of the fixture in position using the supplied self-tapping screws.
• Connect the power leads using suitable wire connectors, ensuring correct polarity.
• Test for proper operation.
2. Troubleshooting:
• In the event of improper operation, first verify that the fixture polarity is correct. The
red lead must be connected to positive (+) and the black lead to negative (-). Correct
the wiring if necessary.
• Second, check that the fixture is receiving adequate power. The light requires
nominally 12 VDC for correct operation. Voltage must be measured using the fixture
power leads, not the vehicle chassis. Correct any faults found.
• Note: There are no other user-serviceable parts.
