    finally got all the parts for this Cali Raised light bar. I'm pretty psyched but need some help. on the light bar end of the wiring harness there are two identical plugs. I'm thinking this is a wiring harness for the fog light kit but will it still work with this dual row light bar? the light bar only has one plug coming out of it.

    thanks in advance

    alright I have a new problem. I got the LED bar installed and the "bumper light bar" switch as well. The blue backlight on the switch won't go out.

    I wired it according to the instructions on the Caliraised site. I don't' have the blue wire on the harness so used the red wire

    white ->green/yellow
    black-> black
    Red-> red/yellow closest to the green. according to the instructions

    and the other red on the switch went to an add-a-circuit and into an empty slot on the fuse block.

    now the blue backlight won't go out. what am I doing wrong?

    thank you

    I don't understand why I need two fuse taps. Im pretty dumb with electrical stuff.

    I pulled the add a fuse out and the back light is still on

    I figured it out finally. ultimately the instructions were incorrect which I'm a little disappointed about. but I found a different write up on here and everything works perfectly with the add a circuit I already had. @madcity27 thanks for your help. Im stoked to see what this thing looks like tonight

    What ultimately ended up being the issue? I am having a similar issue and hoping its just something simple.

    I skip the add a circuit. I just tap into the power going to the factory bed light switch. This way the LED only comes on when the lights are on.
