Switch panel help

Hey TF,
So i bought a cheap 6 switch panel from Hooke Road that fits perfectly into the cubby space to the left of the steering wheel.
As I’m beginning install im curious to how to connect the switches themselves.
You can see in the picture that it has quick connects for each light you want to wire but my experience (limited it is) usually you need to wire ground, pos, and neg all separately.
Can anyone shed some light? Do I only hook in the positive’s to the quick connectors?

 

I honestly have no idea as I couldn’t find any directions.
Could it be that the 6 wires are all power to different relays?
I see a lone red wire, could that be the “feed” wire to the rest?
Like I say, I honestly don’t know, just a total guess?

Looks pretty simple to me.

 

Nice, I did a quick search. Didn’t find anything.

 

I actually found that on ebay. Hooke Road sells that switch panel on ebay, but they don't sell it on their website. Strange.

 

Yeah, I looked on their website.
Strange for sure.

 

I see Muddinfun is all over it!

 

Thank y’all. Pretty clear but let me ask. Positives in the quick connect then ground each separate?

 

Yep. There’s no reason to run the ground wires all the way back to Kansas. Just attach the ground wires to a bolt near the light.

 

Sorry for all the questions. Do pos and neg (red and white) each go to the quick connect and then ground sep. Or only the positive?

 

In the diagram above, the box labeled [OUT] only supplies power (+)
Any thing that gets Power (+) from that [OUT] box will need a separate ground.
(Typically located near the accessory (Light) you are installing.)


As @Muddinfun said, keep the grounds simple.

 

hey bud, thanks. Makes sense. I completely forgot i have two stages white/amber which account for the two positive wires

 

A little curious on how this fits into the cubby space. I found a picture that shows how it looks once it's installed, but wondering just how this is done. Could you post a picture or two (or a pdf) of the instructions that show this? Also, when you say, "i bought a cheap 6 switch panel," is that because of the quality or the price? I found one on Amazon for $80 and a couple on Ebay for $90 to $100, which I wouldn't consider exactly cheap.

Thanks in advance!

 

Sure! Here’s a photo. It was 80 from Amazon, cheap bc i was gonna get another for 160. And then switch pros are a million bucks

 

I should explain, there are four "wings" that flip out when you put it in teh cubby and then tighten down. pretty simple

 

Hey thanks, knowing about the four wings explains how it installs into the cubby. I already have two toggles hidden inside the cubby, so this panel is a better way to utilize that area. Good to know you can also remove the panel to access the area and wiring behind it.

Thanks Again!

 

I know this is an older post but are you able to tell me what fuse you tapped for the accessory wire under the hood? or did you run it into the cab? I am out of fuse tap locations in the cab and none of the ones under the hook actually seem to be accessory only when I test them.

Thanks,
