Which light should I wire to which switches? Advice please

Thanks for the help, the LVJ unit looks like will fit my needs best as I’m not going to run a winch and the power output seems plenty. Merry Christmas gents! I’ll order now.

I can take some pics of where mine is mounted once I bring my truck back home ( at the wrap joint right now).

Did you ever get any picks of your trail rocker setup? The box is bigger than I thought it would be and I have no idea where to mount it.

I’ve noticed that all the aftermarket lights pull more amps then the truck provided anyways. 1 cube from Baja designed pulls 30’amps and the truck says 15amp per switch. Even the S2s are like 10 or 20 amps which is to much for the rest of the board. My lighting guy says he’s gotta build a small 30 amp relay switch and hook it to the battery and use the switches for just the on and off. Could be something to consider when hooking anything up.

Also I feel ford put too low amp ratings on these switches as any decent off-road lights are pulling more then 15 amps

Your math is off. 1x S2 Pro draws 1.7 amps. Sport draws 0.9A.

The whole 9 light KC Hilite pro roof bar only draws 15A. But I agree they should have just made the panel 6x30A.

I’m pretty sure in the Baja directions it said 30amp next to the lights in the instructions . I’ll do a little research and see what I can find but on the instruction sheet there was 30a on there [emoji23]

Quick question.. to wire s2 reverse lights to turn on when you put the truck in reverse do you relay it into the driver side tail light or passenger ? I’m gonna do this then put them on switch 6 as well

People have recommended that you splice into the trailer plug centre wire as it is larger gauge than the side wires.

Watts / Operating Voltage = Amps
