C. Electrical Connection.

1. Connect one of the power leads to an activation device. Remaining power lead MUST be

connected to a good vehicle ground. See figure 3.

2. To protect the vehicle electrical system, install a user-supplied in-line fuseholder as close

as practical to the battery. Install an 8 ampere fuse in the fuseholder.

3. Check the light for proper operation by setting the activation device to its "on" position.

If the light does not operate, check the fuse to ensure that it has not blown. If the fuse is

for continuity and proper grounding.
