Switch Pros 9100 install and BS thread

Covered the

$611 CKMTA12 '12V' On-Board Twin High Performance Air Compressor, Ideal for Air Lockers Locking Differentials, Tire Inflator, Air Horn, Air Tools and Pneumatic Tools.

CKMTA12 in my build thread. Only need the purple and black wires without lockers.

 

Wow. This was totally it. And your other explanation after this sense... Terrible usage choice of high and low for light triggers...

Edit: Thanks @DeusExMachina!

 

Wow, you weren't kidding. Just installed my SP 9100 and the app is terrible. That "loading" screen for every page is enough to make you want to not use it.

 

If Im reading this right youre just wondering if you can wire this directly to the sp, yes. You will have to have the positive wire go to the pressure switch, then the pressure switch to the motor power plug, and have the negative go straight to the motor power plug. You can ditch the rest of the wires. That way you are just using a positive, and a negative wire.

 

Fortunately you just need to program with it...or use it to turn stuff on from outside the car. But yeah, it's bad.

 

I’ve got a pair of Baja Designs S2s that I’m trying to wire up to my switch pros. I don’t have a cable for them and I’m looking to make my own. Can someone advise on how to fabricate the wiring harness to connect the pair to one switch? My initial stab at it looks like the attached file. Does this look right? (I’m open to how to make it better also)

 

Contact baja designes....ask for a harness
?

 

That'll work. You don't really need the butt splices except for ease of manufacture, you could just strip a little bit of insulation of the "parent wire" and solder on the "child" wire for both the hot and the ground

 

Yeah, but that would cost me roughly $60 and I already have all the materials I need to make my own. Plus I’m always up for learning something new and I also like tinkering on my truck.

 

Ah, I hadn’t thought of that. Thanks!

 

It's in my build thread.

 

Does anyone have any issues with the switch pros? I had wired up some amps today and now my halos turned off and my switch pros won’t work? Not sure I tried touching it and could only illuminate the light bar for a quick second and I unplugged batter and still having issues! Any ideas?

 

This is spectacular and you should be proud. Heat shrink, labels, wire management...

 

Thank you sir for the kind words.

 

Would you be willing to make another one of these mounts? I love your setup and just ordered the SDHQ mount. Came here for ideas and i love this but don't have the tools to fabricate it.

 

Here’s a link to builds I’ve done. Send me a PM and we can see what we can work out.

Does anyone know if the SP 9100 will fit the square cubby directly attached to the cup holder in the Manual Transmission? Its right behind the shifter and in front of the cup holders. Seems like an ideal spot to lazily turn on lights quickly without having to reach. Thanks for any help

 

You could probably make a mount but I don’t think it would be a very good spot. It’ll be hard to get to if you’ve got anything in the cup holder.

I mounted mine right behind the overhead console. It works very well, easy to reach - it’s basically straight up from the shifter.

 

What is everybody doing with the cables that they don’t use off the main 16 pin harness ?
And do I connect all accessories before connecting positive to battery? I know you need to ground to negative terminal
first but I’m concerned with connecting switch pro to positive w/ the wires not connected to accessories yet.

 

I just wrapped mine in electrical tape. Been fine for 2+ years

You can connect accessories whenever. There’s no power unless you have the switch active.
