That's a great idea, thanks!

An easy way to get rid of the light that is always on is unplug the lower red cable. The lower red cable is the power for the AL or always on light. The light that comes on when you turn the switch on will still work to!!

Haha, thanks! 8 switches is a lot! I was just out in Texas on a road trip a couple weeks ago. We were visiting Big Bend National Park and the Guadalupe Mountains.

Glad it helped!

With the flat part of the factory plug facing down, the orange wire is on the right. It's on the side with the two white wires and a yellow. At 10:11 in the video you can really get a good view of it.

Thanks, I hope it helps!

You would ground your lights in a common area and run power to each one with its own fuse. The small power wires from the relay would go to whichever switch you wanted to run them. The power to the switch would come from the harness the same way I did it, but it would be split to tie in to all your switches.

@@RoadandReel thanks for the response. I do have the hilight wiring harness for both the bar light and the pod lights. Each harness has its own clicker and positive and negative wires that are connected directly to the truck battery. Just so I know I’m clear, in order to connect the rocker switch panel to both wiring harnesses for the pod lights and bar light, the clickers must be removed/cut, and wires that were connected to the clickers (small red, black, and white or yellow) must then be connected to the rocker switch. This is where I’m somewhat not clear…do I connect all small wires (red, black, white or yellow) for each harness to each rocker switch? And same for the wires for the other harness? Thanks

@@usmarinenapinoy without seeing it, I'm guessing your lights have outer and inner bulbs. I'm guessing those are the yellow/white and red. Those power the bulbs and the black is the ground. You'll cut the switch side off and wire those to the new rocker switched on side. Black is ground almost always. You rockers will pull power from the harness. Power will run through the switch and into the yellow/white and red. Those go to the relay input and the relay pulls power from a fused battery wire and a big wire (probably red) will come out of the relay and power the red and yellow/white wires. Ground your black wires to the frame somewhere.

Hello! Did you install other lights on the other switches? So you can show us how you placed the cables please.

@@proyectocoyhaique5935I went a different route. I’ve used the Auxbeam 8 gang switch panel instead. It is somewhat more expensive but much easier to install.

So for each switch, the middle left prong is power in. Bottom left prong is power out.

And the ground. It also takes the relay setup the way I did under the hood.

If you just want it to light up when the switch is on, then you would run a jumper wire from the prong that powers your off-road lights back to the prong on the back of the switch that makes it light up.

Power runs through the relay and to the light. When the switch inside is flipped, it turns the relay on which then let's power pass through it to the light. If I didn't use a relay, then I would run huge wire from the battery to the switch then to the light, so the switch would be breaking the circuit. Instead, I can use the relay to break the power in the circuit by running a small power wire to the relay from my switch, inside, that turns it on or off.

This is a pretty good video that explains it. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZh9pZWLzNyVc58.html

The yellow wire is the power out of the switch and it travels to the relay to activate it. Here is where I initially wired it up and explain it all. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZOenr2mm5mUqqM.html

I had another question So tha rocker panel when u add a new set of light bar or pod all u have to do is plug into other switches Would u have to add another relay to tha light bar or that 1 relay will work

@@thaAzian1401 Each bank that you add will have its own relay and hot wires. You can add a separate fuse panel to run everything to keep it organized.

Would u happen to know a video or will u b posting more videos where u add other lights to ur truck

@@thaAzian1401 here's a good one. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNx2e6Ri3b-VYKs.html Also, you can look up Auxiliary fuse and relay boxes for Ram truck LED lights and it should bring up a lot of stuff. There's a lot of keep wiring videos and off road stuff that is really good, too. Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!

Which panel? Above the emergency brake where I put the switches? That's the first I've heard of that.

What year is your truck? Does it have a knob to shift or is it on the column?

Did you connect to the right orange wire? What does it do when you turn your lights on and adjust the dimmer? What about when your lights are off and you flip the switch?

@@RoadandReel nothing happens. The top light of the switch I have connected stays on

@@irvin4am check the connections on the back of the switch, again. I think you have the back wired wrong with the lights in the switch powered with the battery.

These switches can't be made double throw, but they do make double throw switches that will fit in this same space.

@@RoadandReel well that's dumb why wouldn't they make that an option

@@ryan-ue2vr the company might have that option and these are standard size switches, so I'm sure you could find a double throw switch that mounts in the same bezel.

No, it's all been good.

Been running it exactly like that with the same panel and switches for a while now and it works great👍🏽

I appreciate it and I'll take that into consideration next time.

Does your 2500 have 2 batteries? I’m installing a single switch for running lights in my 3500 which has two batteries and everything is fine until I click the switch on and then it blows the fuse. I installed a wire harness from Nightlight that came with the switch. I have checked to make sure the positive and negative are correct at the light connection and still can’t find why I am blowing a fuse.

@@JoshH001 Mine is a single battery, but that shouldn't matter int he harness. Check that on side gas 12v when going to ground and the other side has continuity with a ground. You may have two different legs of the hot side.

Thanks for your video and your response

@@JoshH001 as long as I help a little, I'm happy 😊 I don't always make my videos with the "how to" in mind. I'm doing it for myself and making the video afterwards, so I'm sorry if it's not always the clearest.
