2. Connect Negative: Connect the negative wire (usually black) from the LED light to a suitable ground point on the vehicle chassis or the negative terminal of the battery.
3. Switch Connection: Wire a switch into the relay circuit to control the power to the lights.
4. Test Functionality: Once all connections are made, re-connect the vehicle battery and test the lights to ensure they function correctly.

6. Operating Instructions

The Auto Power Plus LED lights are designed for straightforward operation.

• Power On/Off: Activate the installed switch to turn the LED lights on or off.
