try this.........
a. Find a suitable location in your vehicle and mount the switch panel using the enclosed screws.
b. Using a sheet metal screw, mount the relay under the hood within 18" of the battery or other 12 volt power source.
c. Find the red/black wire and attach one end to the red wire on the light furthest from the
relay. Now route the same wire back toward the relay and, as it passes the second light, attach the enclosed black wire splice bullet connector so that the second light can now be plugged in. Continue to route this red/black wire back to the relay and plug it in to terminal #87
d. Next, the green and white wires must be routed from the switch inside the vehicle to the area under the hood. Attach the green wire to the switch terminal marked LOAD. Attach the white wire to the switch terminal marked SUPPLY. Routing these wires can be very simple. Open the drivers side door and the hood, route the wires up the left side of the dash between the
dash and the door, through the door jam to the crack between the fender and windshield. Tuck the wires into the crack and continue on into the engine compartment. An alternate method might be to route these two wires through the firewall
along side the steering column. Once under the hood, route the green wire to relay terminal #86. Using the wire splice supplied, the white wire can be attached to the high beam, low beam or an ignition activate wire depending on how you wish your lights to be controlled.
e. The 18" brown wire should be attached between the switch terminal marked EARTH and a good metal grounded surface under the dash.
f. With all three wires on their proper terminals, the switch can now be secured to the panel.
g. Connect the 6" black wire between relay terminal #85 and ground.
h. Remove the fuse from the 18" yllow wire and attach it between relay terminal #30 and your battery or other 12 volt source.
i. Replace the fuse and turn your lights on.
