Trucks are no fun stock :)

Really happy with it. You get to try out your new truck yet?

@@mossman381 Not really. We got about 3" of snow a couple of weeks ago but I had to be out of town on a scheduled appointment. By the time I got back it had warmed up and was melting fast. They say we are going to get 1 to 3 inches of snow tonight. So maybe I'll get at least a plowable snow.

@@547Rick I hope you get some snow. We have no snow in our forecast for awhile.

Thanks 👍

You are so right. I thought it looked odd.

Hello

You just run power to the correct wires. One wire will be steady on white, and another wire will be flashing amber. One will override the other if they both get power at the same time. I think the white with override the amber.

It's pretty awesome working with STL. Andrew is great to work with.

They provide a mini fuse tap. I don't remember the fuse I tapped into but just find one that has power when the switch is on.

I am not sure why I keep saying they are amber. They are actually 3000k on the light scale. Which is a yellow color. The camera turns them greenish for some reason.

STL, watch the video.

The waring lights are all STL.

It's in the video. I modified the brackets that came with the lights.

What problem are you having? I thought you had a remote problem and they sent you all kinds of parts for it.

@@mossman381 Yeah I did and it's kind of doing the same thing again also can't change Flash patterns but went outside just little bit ago and it's working just fine I think there's a short in the PCB board or something but they told me that anything that is gifted for video review or anything has 0 warranty because we did not pay for it I want to pass that along view because I know they have sent you a bunch of stuff so anything That they sent you if you have a problem with it you will have to pay to have it fix which I think is stupid because we are getting them Sales They said it's against their policy to fix or warranty anything that is gifted I will be making a follow up video and it's not gonna be pretty about how I have had problems with this bar and I've also had problems with other stuff of theirs and I am not the only one that has had problems with stuff to some of my friends that have their stuff had problems with their stuff as well

Andrew has always been very helpful with any issues I have. Have you checked the plug that goes into your control box? I had the flash pattern wire pin push back on me once. I couldn't change patterns then found the pin on the connector had pushed back and wasn't making good contact. They did send you a free $300 light. If you end up having to pay some to fix it I don't see how you could be mad at them. If you are having the same exact problem then maybe it's just a $9 controller like before. Is your controller getting beat up? Mine and dads are fixed to the dash so they are flopping all over the floor.

@@mossman381 mine is mounted to and I'll check the pins to see if that's the problem

The green wire should be the steady burn override wire.

They are pretty bright. We haven't had much snow for me to use the plow much.

So am I. They have a 5 year warranty and STL has good people behind their products. That was one reason all the lights are on separate switches. I thought they might bounce off stuff and be annoying and I could shut some off. So far I turn them all on and they don't bother me.

@@mossman381 Very interesting. I will have to keep watching your videos to see how they hold up. I like your setup quite a bit!

Dad got that light locally after he lost my last two. This was the light I had. It wasn't as good as the previous light but it worked and was cheap. amzn.to/3aYmGgg

I have a playlist of videos showing just about everything done to this truck. They are Patriot tires. Check out my videos for more info. I show rims, tires, backspacing, size, fitment, everything.

I don't feel I need anymore strobes. I am going to convert my lightbar to Linear. I will do a video on that at some point. This setup really does everything I need it to an more.

@@mossman381 do u not like the tir and are u just going to get the lights and replace on the inside or get a whole new light bar cus I think the pcm on that bar will only work with tir u would have to replace the mother board to switch I think

@@TheNathan343 Dad has the same bar in Linear. When we are next to each other you can see his is brighter. It might not be brighter but with the linear optics it speads the light better. According to Andrew I can just change out the lights.

@@mossman381 ok cool.they must have changed that cus before it wasn't like that

I checked all the grounds that guys suggested online and other gm forums

Check your battery voltage while it’s acting up. On the back side of the cab mount that’s under the drivers feet, there are 2 or 3 ground bolts depending on your trim level and options, remove them they are usually a 13 mm head and make sure they are clean,they get corroded and the truck does funny things ...

@@JohnDiMartino the battery gauge screws ups. Do you mean use a battery tester or a volt meter on the battery ? The 2 ground on the drivers side frame ? I cleaned those few years ago I can try it again

Electrical gremlins can be difficult to find. I would think if your alternator was not working you would have more troubles than just your gauges.

@@mossman381 ya my truck wouldn’t be starting

amzn.to/3n85VBL Those are the two wire ones but they have just about anything you need and different wire gauges. I have been pretty happy with them. Give the wires a little tug to make sure they are seated good inside the plug and make sure you plug them in a few times before installing them to make sure the pins don't push back. Finally I fill them with dielectric grease when I plug them in for the final time.

@@mossman381 Thanks! Been trying to find something good for connectors.

I had to use the extension cable to get it to reach in the cab so it's hard wired.

This setup does everything I need it to do and more. I am really happy with it. Just a few small tweaks I want to do.

@@mossman381 I already want to change around my set up around

With the plugs I am using changing my setup will be pretty easy.

@@mossman381 I used your link and got plugs when I did my truck

People see my lights just fine. I don't understand why someone that doesn't like STL is watching a video of STL????

Is this what Trump said when he woke up the next day and had lost the election? :)

STL has a 5 year warranty. What did they say when you told them your light lasted 10 days?

@@mossman381 it took 3 months of fighting with them to honor the warranty, tried to say it wasn't a warranty issue that they cover (burned out, water inside the lense)... they ended up making me pay my own shipping to send it back for repair... waited another 3 months, they finally sent me a replacement. Thanks but no thanks... "You get what you pay for!"

That doesn't sound like STL to me. 3 months of fighting?? If you didn't pay much for the light why would you fight for 3 months? This story sounds fishy to me.

@@mossman381 STL is a joke, simple as that. They're not bright in direct sunlight, and you're gonna have issues with them. Water, moisture, etc are gonna get in and burn out the lights very quickly. Its a hit or miss, but 98% they're a miss.

They are not a joke. You are the joke wasting your time bashing a good company. I have been using STL for years with no issues so far. Even if I have an issue I know I can email or call and I will be helped by good people.

Sometimes I feel like I might be a little crazy.

Must be blind.

STL is not junk. They have good lights at good prices and good people behind them. I have been running the STL lights for years. They have a 5 year warranty just like your beloved Whelen. There are many americans working at STL in Texas. I just watched a video of a Whelen light during the day for twice the price. Not impressed.
