Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

You talking about putting the Warn wireless on a different brand? Have you seen this done?
I've thought about that too... not smart enough with electrical to try it.

 

Easy...3 wires from Warn setup to the 3 wires from Shittybilt and the two extra wires get connected to each other...Pretty simple. Just not sure if it is better than hardwired in cab. I worry I will hit a switch or worse yet have some other idiot hit a switch at a shjop or whatever.

I have one, works nice. First unit I got was defective but they just sent me a new one. Slight delay but not enough to hinder usage.

 

Unplug it at the shop or when not on the trail...

Wireless setup would be nice though.

 

Seriously by the time I buy two nice switches and wiring I am in it almost the same but I get wireless....I dunno.

 

I'm liking it. As a far as taking the truck to a shop, just in plug the power wire, it takes less than a minute.

 

This is why I have mine running to an accessory fuse. I just pull the fuse and winch power no worky

 

Nice! I may do this now, hard wired in wireless control leaving the standard plug inside the engine bay as b/u and do in cab controls too.

 

Really no need for in cab controls with a wireless...I think I will end up this route!

 

Winch and compressor/lockers get unplugged.

 

Same here. Pull fuse.
Thanks for the pointers, it was way easy. The hardest part was getting the lights on the switches themselves to work the way I wanted.

 

Would anyone in the area be interested in a set of 285/70/17 BFG KM2's? Only 5,000 miles on them.

 

Slimwood, You up?

 

Heres the Electrical question I have. I'm tired and cannot think straight.

I have all of my switches for the lights hooked to SPDT Relays, only using them as SPST. So 4 switches (Front, Back, Side, Side). I want to have a 5th switch that turns them ALL on with the flick of that switch, instead of individually.

Any idea? \

Only thing I could think of was using the 5th switch as "Power" to the other 4 switches and always leaving them 'on' so when the 5th was flicked, all are energized. If I wanted to use them individually, 5th energized, and the rest in the off position. Thats using Using the Rigid Switches they send.

Maybe SPDT switches? I can't think. I made a diagram somewhere a few months ago with everything I needed and can't find or remember now.

Or if anyone else has some direction, PLEASE Point!

 

Wire one switch to a hot, and jump all of your accessory relay triggers to that switch. Done!

 

Too small for us

I am now...I am in bed around 10 every night....

 

Gotta get up early for golfing??

 

Main reason I went with the wireless controller, plus so much easier!

 

I plan on doing a kill switch specifically for the lockers, and moving all my light related switches down to the center console. so you dont have to worry about "whats this button do"
