Wiring Instructions; Maintenance & Troubleshooting - Ecco Blaze II Strobe Instrucciones De Instalacion Y Uso

Wiring Instructions:

Notes:
1. Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high current wires it is highly recommended that terminal blocks
or soldered connections be used with shrink tubing to protect the connections. Do not use insulation displacement connectors (e.g., 3M Scotchlock
type connectors).
2. Route wiring using grommets and sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number of splices to reduce voltage drop.
High ambient temperatures (e.g., under-hood) will significantly reduce the current carrying capacity of wires, fuses, and circuit breakers. All wiring
should conform to the minimum wire size and other recommendations of the manufacturer and be protected from moving parts and hot surfaces.
Looms,grommets, cable ties, and similar installation hardware should be used to anchor and protect all wiring.
3. Fuses or circuit breakers should be located as close to the power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the wiring and devices.
4. Particular attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connections and splices to protect these points from corrosion
and loss of conductivity.
5. Ground termination should only be made to substantial chassis components, preferably directly to the vehicle battery.
6. Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high temperatures and will "false trip" when mounted in hot environments or operated close to their capacity.
Important:
Disable power before wiring up the bar.
The wiring for the minibar is as shown in Figure 2 below. All wiring should be a minimum of 18AWG. The positive line must have a 10 amp fuse.
A switch may be used to control the on/off function.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting:
Most strobe failures can be traced to wiring or battery problems. Check all wiring and connections to insure the correct voltage is reaching the strobe light.
If the strobe operates erratically or stops completely, and the wiring is not at fault, the flashtube is probably worn. To replace it, remove the outer dome, and
the inner lens. Remove the flashtube by squeezing on the tabs on the side of the tube holder and pulling up. Plug in the new tube assembly.
See Figures 3 & 4.
Note: The connector is keyed to ensure proper orientation. Make sure that the three contacts on the bottom of the flashtube are straight. Do not force. If
trouble continues, return product to your local dealer for warranty replacement, or call ECCO Customer Service for assistance (800) 635-5900.
Note: Operating the vehicle without the lens installed on this product will result in damage that will not be covered under warranty.

Important:
This unit is a safety device, and it must be connected
to its own, separate fused power point to assure its continued operation
should any other electrical accessory fail.
