I use this for charging and starting only. Never tried anything I did not understand and I do not understand reversed hook up.

There is two stray wires for positive and negative. You can connect it to batteries. Connect it to a 12 volt source i.e. inside cab lights.

Check your connection to the reverse lamp circuit with a test light or volt meter and make sure your monitor is is connected to constant power it will turn on automatically when in reverse and off when in park or any other gear

If you have the TRANS and FRONT reversed, that's what happens. Check the wiring, I know because I screwed it up :-)

We noticed the the blinking occurred when the A/C was on. Suspected that it had to do with the power draw somehow. Car was totaled shortly after we discovered the connection so we never got a chance to troubleshoot more on it.

These are dual element style lights which means running lights and brake lights they use same negative and different positives it's been a while since I wired it so couldn't tell u which is which but I checked by touching the battery directly found which side was brighter and tied it into brakes other one tied into license plate light done deal

On the underside of the engine are 2 switches. One is the smoke unit and the other is the reverse unit. Make sure the smoke unit switch is on and put smoke fluid in the smoke stack. Be careful not to overfill the smoke stack. Only turn the reverse switch to on if you want to be able to reverse the engine direction.

You cigarette lighter socket/Aux. Socket is likely fused with a 10, 15, 20 amp fuse. An attempt to put anything in that slot and draw meaningful power from it would instantly blow that cigarette lighter socket fuse. So no.

Hello, J. Waldvogel!Could you recommend a better one for an average shade tree mechanic like me? I also need it to read the older OBD-I connector vehicles too. I have an old 1994 Chevy diesel truck that is showing a "Service Engine Soon" light. I would like to be able to connect to it and fix the problem.Thanks in advance!Lee

its the 3 wire connection, it also comes with new wiring. not sure if this is the reverse lights or brake. some white lights are also reverse lights. hope this helps.

I bought a aftermarket positive battery terminal like used to hook up a amp and subwoofers so it gives you spot for your original factory positive wires for the car to the terminal but also gives you a few different spots to hook up accessories like amps or other 12volt accessories and hooked my main positive wires so car starts and all system work 100% like factory set up and ran the power wire from light kit to that same aftermarket terminal and put in another 15amp in line fuse to be 100% safe that lights don't get ruined and car is safe as well..

Quite possibly it is for short circuit deflection. Used as a way to stop a spark of static electricity from flowing back to the A?V receiver. Consider it a bit of extra protection in either case.

Check for proper wiring on the slave switch. Sounds like the neutral and tracer are reversed.

You're right to be confused, R. S.See my question about what that schematic is supposed to be for.Read the comments to the answers to find the scoop on this solenoid.

typically at the fuse box it is just power and it is switched later. you could test where you are tapped to see if it is turning off when it's not in reverse

id say it depends on the vehicle youre putting it on. but most use the splice that crimps the wire to the side of the existing wire to reverse lights. kinda like a vampire tap..
