    Great video! Didn’t see you video until today, but I put mine in a few months ago. Your switch placement is exactly where I put mine. One, it’s a super easy spot and two it makes it look almost factory. Only downside is it’s a little hard to see while driving.

      No Drilling required, I just cut a small slit into the rubber plug and re-installed it. I'm not 100% Sure what the plugs are for, they are generally left open for wiring, or in some instances Manual / Automatic trucks utilize the same body and will have additional openings.

      It's not dimmable, however it's not too intrusive, and where I have it mounted I barely notice it. During the day you can't really see the backlight much, and at night it's fairly consistent with the rest of the lights on my dash.

Needed a micro that I ordered from OReilly Auto parts. None of the 10 AMP fuses would light up the unit when I started the car. I'll look inside the cab as suggested. Works fine when wired directly to the battery

    • @vinnyvidivici
      @vinnyvidivici 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If your switch panel is on when you wire the controller box directly to power, this most likely means that the circuit breaker or online fuse between your box to the positive terminal of your battery is either fried or tripped. Some where, you have a bad fuse. This is my only suspicion your switch panel works when wired directly to the battery.

      Great question, and I have been researching the same as Im planning on doing on board air as well. The Switch panel has a maximum draw of 30Amps, to make sure the compressor doesn't trip the fuse what I'm going to do is Connect the Power Cable for the Air Compressor directly to the battery with the provided Relay and Fuse, and connect the switch wire to the Panel, this should work perfectly fine.

    • @vinnyvidivici
      @vinnyvidivici 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can use a compressor with this switch controller IF your compressor draws the amperage within the amp rating of the fuse on the controller box. The highest amp rating on the fuse on this box is 30 amps, so if your compressor operates within 30 amps, it will work. If your compressor draws a higher amperage, you can change out the fuse on the controller box to a higher amp as long as it doesn’t exceed 60 amps (the circuit breaker that comes with the box is 60 amps).
