    Anyone have experience wiring a MicTuning switch to a Nilight Wiring Harness and light bar? I previously purchased and installed a light bar from CaliRaisedLed and their wiring harness is a bit different from the NiLight harness. Both have (3) wires going to the included generic red circular switch, but the (3) wires are different in color. For example, CaliRaisedLED has blue/black/white if I remember correctly. The new harness I purchased from NiLight appears to be different, judging from the stock photos on Amazon.

    When I previously wired the CaliRaisedLED harness to the MicTuning switch, I remember connecting two of the four wires from the MicTuning switch together before joining it with one of the wires from the CaliRaisedLED harness. Doing this didn't give me the dimmer function. I don't care for the dimmer function. I'm okay with the switch being off when not in use and illuminated when in use.

    I’ve used a MICTuning harness, but tossed the switch. The way that harness was wired would drain your battery if all three wires were plugged to the switch because one of the switch power wires went straight to the battery.

    you’re gonna have to look at whatever they send you and follow the wires back to the relay to see what is connected where, unless the have a wiring diagram.
