Switch Pros 9100 install and BS thread

What do you want to send to the trigger? Driver side DRL connector has pink for parking lights and light green for DRL signal. I make a halogen T with diode module to combine the two.

ETA: that’s your DRL connector, the high beam H9 has a yellow center and attaches directly to the bulb closer to the midline of the vehicle.

 

Driver side high beam is white positive and white w black stripe negative.

I could make an H9 T for you but I’m rather far behind schedule right now.

 

I’m gonna be honest I’m not that savvy with wiring. But currently, I have grill lights and my switch pros white wire tapped to the side marker. I’m wanting to connect the switch pros pink trigger wire to the high beams so my S8 backlight comes on when my high beams go on. Sorry, my electrical expertise is very minimal haha

 

Yeah so you’d need an H9 T harness or even better get OEM LED and I can make a custom conversion harness for Switch-Pros output along with the grille lights.

 

Gotcha! I’m currently running the Morimoto XBs. I’ll take a look at the harness!

 

Has it been discussed on some sort of cover / casing to organize and seal off the exposed wiring?

Mines pretty organized, but I’d like to find a way to conceal the access wiring.

 

For scene lights, are you dividing left and right side or just wiring it to turn on all at once? Kind of debating both options.

 

I think it depends how many lights and other accessories you have. Right now, I have an UpTop rack with 2 BD rock lights per side that I can control left and right side on two switches but my Victory 4x4 sliders with rock lights are on one switch.

 

NEED HELP PLEASE - Switch Pros-9100 module flashing red light -

$659 SP-9100 8-Switch Panel Power System With Concealed Mounting Hardware

SP-9100 worked perfectly fine for a year and then a few days ago the keypad will not turn on and none of the switches work. Cannot see it through the app on my phone either. Was checking wire connections and noticed a little red light on the module right beside the control panel wiring connection is flashing 3x in a row then pause, 3x flash and pause. This was while truck was not even running. I can't find anything in manual about this... am I blind? Thanks in advance for the wisdom of those who have already fought this battle and won.

SOLVED INSTANTLY ON MY FIRST HUNCH TO TRACE AWAY FROM THE SWITCH PROS - I wiggled and unplugged and connected the plugs on the module and the red light stopped flashing. Turned on truck and everything is back up and running. So it means one plug, or the other, is not quite connecting on all wiring pins on the end of the harness. Lucky too because it's dark, snowy, and really windy and I can think of better ways to spend Friday night than gremlin hunting.

 

Just started having this issue as well. Past couple of weeks, the controller won't turn on when I turn the truck on. I press one of the empty buttons and the unit powers up and everything works. Today, same issue only it would not power up when I hit the button. Checked the plugs, they were all plugged in tight. The red LEDs inside the engine compartment, one blinks, then all three blink, then power off. After a few minutes, controller lit up and my radio button when is programmed to automatically power on is on but no power to the radios. All the while, the little round orange LED was blinking. Almost looked like it was power cycling. Anyway, started to drive to work and when I stopped to get gas, my CB turned on and then I tested the fog lights and they all worked. Going to check the wiring on Sunday when I have a chance. Hopefully this is just a one off. If not, I will call them next week.

 

I don't see it mentioned anywhere so I'm assuming I just misremember, but did the 9100 ever have a function that kept a switch on for X amount of time and then it automatically shuts off after that set period of time?

 

Yes - this feature is in the 9100. Just flip through the programming section in the manual. It can go for a wide range of durations.

 

I admit I’m reading the manual on my phone screen which is a pain but I still don’t see it. I see off delay which is triggered when the ignition trigger turns off which isn’t what I’m looking for.

I’m reading the manual from here.

Am I just being blind?

 

Time delay is page 9, item 13.

 

This will make it easier for anyone to get the answer in the future, without looking through the doc.

 

He stated exactly that that's not what he's looking for.

 

I don't believe this functionality exists. You might need to build your own timer trigger.

 

that's too bad, no big deal though.

 

Early 1st gen Tacomas have the EVAP canister under the hood not leaving a ton of space to mount the power module. Is it ok to run longer/fatter power and ground cables and mount the module on the passenger side somewhere? Or should I attempt to stuff it in on the driver side and use the original wiring?

 

The official answer is that they will make you a power cable up to 6' long if you order from them but they won't be happy if you make it yourself.
