It’s just a positive and negative connection for the main box under the hood with a “signal” wire to an ACC fuse. After that the box to switch panel wire gets run into the cab. For the lights themselves just run + & - to the different circuits based on Amp needs. These kits make them super easy. Did an instruction manual come with the kit?

I'm not a wiring expert, but I have wired a bunch of stuff to an Auxbeam switchpod.

If I understand correctly, you are adding auxiliary lights that have a wiring harness with a relay and an on/off switch, but you want the auxiliary lights to come on with the hi-beam stalk.

Good news - you won't need the switch that comes with the lights.

You will need wire cutters and wire strippers, various wiring connectors and wiring taps, like T-taps or Scotchloks, and maybe extra wire.

Going off if your auxiliary lights are something like this:

If someone else can confirm my wiring advice -

Connect wiring to the battery last, at the end, and always do all the wiring on one terminal (positive or negative), then do the wiring on the next terminal.

The thin wires that go from the relay (little black box) to the Auxbeam switch
1. You'll cut the switch off the wires.
1. Black wire connects to the negative terminal on the battery
2. Red wire gets tapped into the wire with the white w/ yellow stripe - this wire is located at the headlight. You need to tap into this between the headlight and the headlight module (another black box).

This will activate the relay when the high beams are given power. The relay only takes a little bit of power to activate. Do not tap on the side of the headlight module that goes away from the headlight, as that can disrupt signals to the truck's computer.

**If someone knows the exact wire to tap into near the steering shaft, that might be helpful**

Getting power to the new lights:
1. The thick red and black wires are what powers the lights themselves and carry the heavy electrical load.
2. The red one connects to the positive terminal on the battery
3. The black connects to the negative terminal.



Ideally, there are ways to wire things to power distribution blocks, etc., but this should work.
