Wiring Instructions - Ecco 7965 Serie Instrucciones De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

WARNING!
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fi re or injury from excessive heat build up.
Operator is responsible for ensuring cigarette adapter fi ts correctly into cigarette/auxillary outlet used.
For proper operation, verify cigarette/auxillary outlet circuit is rated to supply, a minimum of 10 amps. (See specifi cations
section for rated current in amperes).
Do not exceed the current rating for the cigarette lighter power outlet recommended by vehicle manufacturer.
Keep cigarette lighter adapter, and outlet, clean and free of debris.
Do not use the cigarette lighter adapter when wet.
Insert cigarette lighter adapter fully into the outlet for proper connection.
Grasp cigarette lighter adapter, NOT cord, to remove from outlet.
Remove cigarette lighter adapter completely from outlet when light is not in use.

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 signifi cantly reduce the current carrying
capacity of wires, fuses, and circuit breakers. All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size and other recom-
mendations 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 the beacon.
The wiring confi guration is shown in Figure 3 below. All wiring
should be a minimum of 18AWG. A switch may be used to control
the on/off function. The black (negative) wire is connected to the
battery ground.

Maintenance:
This LED beacon has been designed for trouble free operation.
There are no periodic maintenance needs for this model.
Troubleshooting:
1. Most beacon failures, including intermittent or erratic operation
as well as failure of operation can be traced to wiring or battery
problems. Check all wiring, connections, fuse, switch, and bat-
tery voltage to insure that the correct voltage is reaching the
beacon.
2. If this has not remedied the problem, return product to your local
dealer for warranty replacement, or call ECCO Customer Ser-
vice 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.
Flash Pattern Selection:
Flash patterns can be selected by touching the yellow wire to the
red power wire for less than a second. Contacting the yellow and red
wires for longer than a second toggles to the preceding fl ash pattern.
