4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Power On/Off
Once wired correctly, the light will illuminate when power is supplied to the red and black wires.
4.2 Changing Lighting Modes
To change the lighting pattern, briefly touch the yellow mode switch wire to the positive (+) power source. Each brief touch will advance to the next mode. The light supports both constant illumination and various strobe patterns.
4.3 Power-Off Memory Function
The light features a power-off memory function. When the light is turned off and then back on, it will resume the last selected lighting mode.
5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the light, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the lens or housing.
- Inspection: Periodically check the wiring for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Ensure all mounting screws remain tight and secure.
- Water Resistance: The light has an IPX-4 waterproof rating, meaning it is resistant to splashing water from any direction. While durable, avoid submerging the unit.
6. Troubleshooting
- Light Does Not Turn On:
- Check all power connections (red wire to positive, black wire to negative/ground) for secure contact.
- Verify that the vehicle's power supply is active and within the 12V-24V operating range.
- Inspect the wiring for any breaks or short circuits.
- Light Does Not Change Modes:
- Ensure the yellow mode switch wire is making proper, brief contact with the positive (+) terminal.
- Confirm the yellow wire is not continuously connected to positive or negative, which can prevent mode cycling.
- Light Flickers or Is Dim:
- Check for loose wiring connections at the light or the power source.
- Ensure the power supply is stable and providing adequate voltage and current.

8.1 Synchronizing Multiple Lights
To connect multiple units (e.g., 4 lights) to a single power source and synchronize their mode switching:
- Connect all red wires from each light to a common positive (+) power line.
- Connect all black wires from each light to a common negative (-) or ground line.
- Connect all yellow mode switch wires from each light to a single momentary switch (e.g., a push button). This switch should briefly connect the yellow wires to the positive (+) power line when pressed.
- Ensure all lights are powered on simultaneously. When you press the momentary switch, all connected lights should cycle through their modes together.
