recommended procedures

1. Test all circuits with a voltmeter.
2. Make all wiring connections using solder and heatshrink using the procedure below. Do NOT twist wires or
use scotch-lock connectors.
Strip half an inch of insulation from the wires you are going to solder and slide a piece of shrink tubing
over one of them.
Join the wires together, then heat the wires with a soldering iron whilst touching solder to the wires
until the solder melts.
Pull the wires to test the solder joint, then position the loose shrink tube over the solder joint and gently
heat with a hot air gun so that it tightly seals and insulates.
3. Keep extensions as short as possible. Use the same gauge wires for short extensions and larger gauge wires
for longer extensions.
4. Before installing, discuss the placement of the LED indicator and Valet switch with the vehicle's owner.
5. Turn off interior light(s) or remove interior light fuse to prevent battery drain.
