    Recently installed a CaliRaised hidden light bar. The backlight on my OEM switch is stuck illuminated. I followed the installation video provided by Cali. The only difference in my harness and the video is that I connected my red wires to a red wire on the harness. The video had a blue wire to connect the red to.

    So my harness had Red, White, Black for Red, Green, Black.

    Video had Blue, White and Black for Red, Green, and Black.

    Doesnt seem to provide enough drain to worry about it illuminated when vehicle is off in the short-term, right?

    Also the video(s) don't specify where to mount the...resistor? mounts. The small black box.

    Any suggestions would be great. Maybe I need to swap my green wire with the red from my OEM switch.

    Edit: I combined the 2 red wires from the OEM switch into 1. One of them was not left unconnected and capped.
