I read the instructions. I'm curious how you wired in the cab lights. I don't know alot about wiring, but this is what I'm thinking you did. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

My truck has five cab lights, 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5. Did you run wire from the FS039 driver's side to lights 1, 3, 5 and passenger's side to lights 2, 4? Or something like that? How did you use the 4-wire trailer plug to extend to the corner lights?

Do you have (or could you provide) a schematic of your set up?

you are correct i put 1-3-5 on one and 2-4 on the other, if you notice in the instructions it mentions green, yellow, white, brown wires. all the manufacturer has done is used wiring like on a trailer for the wire instead of running seperat wires. their "fire-resistant wire" is trailer wire. walmart sells a 25' spool of it, no connectors just the wire.

if you want I can draw up a schematic.

I dunno about useing the emergency flasher switch. i havent had a chance to take a good look at it yet, but do know that the switch in the box has 6 wires on it. i just need to take time and figure out what they all do.

farmer ford: i dunno about tieing into a tralier. im shure it could be done.

A schematic would be very helpful to me and very appreciated.

My "To-Do" list gets bigger every time I logon to FTE. I keep adding to the list, but never get anything on the list completed. Oh well, it's cold outside and the game's on right now. It'll be warmer in March when the wife and kids are in Germany and I have the credit cards all to myself. (Insert devious laughter here)
