5. Setup and Installation

5.1 Pre-Installation Checklist:

• Verify all components are present: LED light unit, grommet, mounting hardware.
• Ensure the installation location on the vehicle is clean, dry, and provides sufficient space.
• Gather necessary tools: wire strippers, crimpers, electrical tape, drill, appropriate drill bits, screwdriver, multimeter.
• Disconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal before beginning any electrical work.

5.2 Mounting Options:

The 5626432 light supports both recessed and surface mounting.

Recessed Mounting (with Grommet):

1. Cut an oval opening in the mounting surface according to the dimensions of the grommet. Ensure the opening is slightly smaller than the grommet's outer edge for a snug fit.
2. Insert the grommet into the cut opening.
3. Carefully push the LED light unit into the grommet until it is fully seated and flush with the mounting surface.

Surface Mounting (with Mounting Hardware):

1. Position the light on the desired mounting surface.
2. Mark the locations for the mounting holes using the light's pre-drilled holes as a template.
3. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations.
4. Secure the light to the surface using the provided mounting hardware (screws, nuts, washers). Ensure the light is firmly attached.

5.3 Wiring Diagram:

The light comes with 7-3/4 inch leads with blunt cut ends. Refer to the following color code for proper connection:

Wiring Steps:

1. Connect the White wire to a reliable vehicle chassis ground.
2. Connect the Red wire to the vehicle's stop/turn/tail light circuit.
3. Connect the Black wire to the vehicle's backup light circuit.
4. Connect the Yellow wire to a switched 12V power source for the strobe function. This can be a dedicated switch or an existing circuit.
5. The Green wire is used for selecting strobe patterns and for synchronizing multiple strobe lights. See Section 6.2 for details.
6. Ensure all connections are crimped securely and insulated with heat shrink tubing or electrical tape to protect against moisture and corrosion.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Basic Light Functions:

• Stop/Turn/Tail: These functions activate automatically when the corresponding vehicle signals (brake, turn signal, headlights/parking lights) are engaged and the Red wire is properly connected.
• Backup Light: The white backup LEDs illuminate when the vehicle is shifted into reverse and the Black wire is properly connected.

6.2 Strobe Function and Pattern Selection:

The amber strobe light features 19 distinct flash patterns. To cycle through the patterns, momentarily apply power to the Green wire (e.g., touch it to the Yellow wire's power source for less than 1 second, or use a momentary switch). Each brief power pulse will advance to the next pattern.

To reset the strobe to its default pattern (Pattern 1), disconnect power from the Yellow wire for more than 5 seconds, then reapply power.

6.3 Strobe Synchronization:

For applications requiring multiple strobe lights to flash in unison (synchronous) or alternating patterns, connect the Green wires of all lights together. Ensure all Yellow wires are connected to the same power source. The lights will then synchronize their flash patterns. To change the pattern for all synchronized lights, momentarily apply power to the shared Green wire connection.

7. Maintenance

The Buyers Products 5626432 LED light is designed for minimal maintenance due to its durable construction and LED technology. However, regular checks can ensure optimal performance and longevity.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the lens with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate lens.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the light for any physical damage, such as cracks in the lens or housing. Check wiring connections for corrosion, fraying, or loose terminals.
• Mounting Security: Verify that the light remains securely mounted to the vehicle. Tighten any loose mounting hardware as needed.
• Functionality Test: Periodically test all light functions (stop, turn, tail, backup, strobe) to ensure they are operating correctly.
