Which fuse you connected to the red wire? I tried install to my Traverse, and connected the red wires with the Headlights fuse, but the LED lights just always on even my car is not turn on!😢
I connected my red wire to a fuse that was called headlight alignment. In my case it was fuse 37 but I expect it could be different on a Chevy traverse. You want to check for fuse that is tied to the ignition so It only comes on when the car turns on.
@@4WardJourney I also have the same car as you, found fuse 37, but how do i put a tap in kit to that tiny fuse? It's a 10amp fuse, but the tap kit prongs are too big to fit in that fuse hole... waiting on your reply, thanks!
Good question - I thought the light would be more visible if the LED was on the hood as opposed to the grill - but it may be similar with either mount position
Thanks for the question - the fuse tap provides two fuse inputs - I put the original 10amp one back in the position for the original component and used the 20 amp for the new LED lights as that was the closest one I had that size

Thanks for watching - good question! The fuse I used comes on when the car is on so the lights are on both daytime and nighttime. If you use a different fuse to tap into, you could have the light bar only come on when the headlights are on.
Thanks for watching - I’m not sure of the regulations in CA so you’d have to check with local authorities. It doesn’t make too bright a light and there are other vehicles with full light bars from the factory.
We just did this to my son’s car and it’s dead now. It’s not the 12v either. We had it towed to Chevy. We’ll find out in a few days what’s wrong with it. Maybe a fuse issue. Which fuse slot did you use?
@@4WardJourney when i attach it to the negative battery and the radio with the tap the light is staying on...does the fuse I take out go on the bottom or top of the tap or what am I doing wrong?
I used fuse number 37 as that relates to power that only goes on when the car is turned on and goes off off when the car is turned off - if you’re using fuse other than that, it might be a fuse that is powered independent of whether or not the ignition is on
I have got this few weeks ago. Where do I connect the red wire in the fuse box? I m not a mechanic or anything lol. I seen some people wrapping the wire around the fuse itself. Which is the correct way and I have a mg hs. Thank you for any help guys ❤
Very well done. Even I understood it.
Thanks!!
You make it look so easy! Very thorough and easy to follow explanation! Thanks for the great vid!
Glad it was helpful!

Is that double sided adhesive on the light strip?
Thanks for watching - yes it is double sided tape
Very nice! Q- why did you mount to the hood (movable part) and not to the grill (non movable) part?
Good question - I thought the light would be more visible if the LED was on the hood as opposed to the grill - but it may be similar with either mount position
@@4WardJourney 1 more question - what fuse # did you tap?
I used fuse 37 - it says it’s related to the headlights alignment
Great vid. Is the fuse box the same for the Bolt EV 2023?
Thanks for watching! I’m not sure if the fuse boxes are exactly the same for the EV and EUV but would think they likely are very similar.
@@4WardJourney Can I ask why you put a 20A fuse in the fuse tap instead of another 10A, like the one you took out?
Thanks for the question - the fuse tap provides two fuse inputs - I put the original 10amp one back in the position for the original component and used the 20 amp for the new LED lights as that was the closest one I had that size
Cool product! Thanks! I couldn’t find your links but I did manage to find the products on Amazon.
Awesome! Thank you!

Does the strip stay on when it’s daylight or just at night when the automatic headlights come on?
Thanks for watching - good question! The fuse I used comes on when the car is on so the lights are on both daytime and nighttime. If you use a different fuse to tap into, you could have the light bar only come on when the headlights are on.
Sounds good to be on day and night. #37. Thanks!!! Mine is on order, along with the fuse tap.
Great I bet you’ll enjoy it!
I'm doing this on my Bolt ⚡!
Great - I’m sure you’ll like it! Isn’t the Bolt great!
Is it road legal in California?
Thanks for watching - I’m not sure of the regulations in CA so you’d have to check with local authorities. It doesn’t make too bright a light and there are other vehicles with full light bars from the factory.

Question? Can we install the hood light and a headlight LED decorative light or do you advise against both choosing one or the other?
I’m sure you could install both I think just choosing one or the other would look better
@@4WardJourney thanks 😊

@@daleward5483 is 37 standard for most vehicles the vehicle in question is a Toyota Camry. Thanks for all of your assistance.
That looks so cool!

Thanks for watching - hope you enjoy the hood lights. I used a fuse tap to connect to the fuse box - so the wires connect to the fuse tap device
