ARB turn signal wiring help? I'm retarded.

[NobleSteed]

Hey guys, I know for MOST of you this is a super easy job. For me, no. Haha.

Ok, on the ARB front bumper turn signal, it has a black and red wire. On the truck's blinker there are three wires. Black/White, Green, Red / Blue.

Can you tell me which the red and black wires on the bumper splice into??

THANK YOU!!!

I can't remember but just turn on the blinkers and running lights, take a tester and poke it through the wire insulation a little.The blinkers will blink and the and the running light will just show constant power.
Whatever you have left over is ground.As a side note when I hooked mine up I hooked them up as runnin lights.
Good luck

cheers

Oh, I think red is power black is ground but I don't think it really matters.....

Could be wired either way (turm or marker). But I think ARB meant for it to be used as a running/marker light.

I'm not sure about that. If you search for this subject on MUD you will find many posts about the lenses melting from people using them as running lights. I believe they are meant to be turn signals.

not that it helps specifically but mine are set-up as turn signals and running lights. They are always on when the stock corner running lights are on until the turn signal is activated at which point they alternate with the OEM turn signal...its pretty cool. Then when headlights are off, they are off until turn signal is activated then they mirror the turn signal

Not if you swap them with LED's as I did...

Cool, how did that work? Was it a direct swap?
