How are the rear lights activated? Switch or automatic putting in reverse?

Directions tell you how to wire them to come on automatically, but I'm sure it's possible to wire them to a switch instead or along with the automatic function.

You can make them either way. But the instructions have you tap into the reverse lights so they only work in reverse

They tap into your reverse lights but you can add a second switch to manually turn on if you want.

Automatically when put into reverse. They tie in with the reverse light wiring.

Going in reverse. I can't tell you how bright they are because the instructions are so confusing.

You could wire it to a switch if you want but the instructions show wiring to the reverse lights. That's what I did. Hey make a huge difference over the stock reverse lights.

You can wire it so it comes "ON" when you shift into reverse or you can wire it so it is "ON" all the time.

you connect the + plus side to your back up lights wiring cable you haft to find the 2 wires going to back up lights .Take back brake leinze or unit off to see the 2 wires going to back up light . one wire will be hot (voltage) when you put car in reverse .The other wire will be ground. the car chassis is ground so the screw you put in to the back up alarm and mount to frame will ground the unit. so all you need is the hot wire connection on light. so you may need a volt meter to measure witch wire is hot when in reverse hope this helps you .

You actually connect parking sensoern main power to reverse lights, so whenever you select R gear da the revers light lights up parking sensors also become powered

There are up and down arrow buttons. Cycle through the buttons. You can turn the lights, by-passing the automatic feature.

Have someone help you check that the reverse lights are working. (white lights on the back) the system uses this signal to turn on. if the lights are working, recheck the connection into the reverse lamp circuit.

It uses existing wires from the original lights. They are turned on manually with a slide switch.

Not sure this will help but I didn't worry about wiring it to automatically come on in reverse but rather to a toggle switch so I can turn it on when ever I need it and it will stay on if you don't line it up exactly right and have to pull forward and back again. Simple install power from the battery to a toggle, then power from toggle to the unit. Easy as pie.

You set the switch for how you want the light. Auto uses the EYE and timer and there is a ON switch so it can be used like a standard light. And of course an OFF switch for when you don't want it on. These are the best lights, and easiest ones, I have ever bought.

The BOSS BV9362bi needs (a) the orange wire connected to the reverse lights (to trigger the switch to the rear camera view), and (b) the yellow/light yellow wire connected to the camera (for video input.) When you switch into reverse, the orange wire automatically overrides whatever is on the screen; and the other takes the input from the camera. For more info, the wiring manual is available at https://www.manualowl.com/m/Boss%20Audio/BV9362BI/Manual/365341. Please refer to page 48

did you turned on the dipswitch at rear side? And did you see red/green light on?

Yes. Really easy. Harness to harness. You will also need your reverse light bulb from your stock tail lights :D

The wires are backwards. The light is suppose to come on when the door is open. There are instructions on the web, you just have to put a little effort into it. "www.homecontrols.com/Lee-Electric-Door-Switch"

The reverse switch is under the upper housing - above the light. Just slide the housing up and the switch is there.

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..

Mine too - the switch on the shifter only seems to have two contact points - Park and Reverse. I tested this switch with an Ohm meter when I installed the shifter and then again a few weeks ago, thinking I missed something on the first go around. All I have been able to determine is that Park allows the ignition circuit to engage and reverse operates the back up lights. Honestly, I am not real thrilled with my Sports Shifter for this and a few other quality issues (like reverse doesn't freely engage - almost have to ratchet into reverse, Can get "Park" to line up with the indicator but then each gear down is misaligned).Sorry wasn't more help Mine too - the switch on the shifter only seems to have two contact points - Park and Reverse.
