change the existing bulb or LED bar. - Place a “Quick Connect” connector over positive (+) side wire going to the third brake light
and insert the Red wire. Using the pliers, squeeze the metal splice to secure the wires and then
snap the cover closed. - Place a “Quick Connect” connector over the same positive (+) side wire going to the third brake
light but between where you attached the Red wire and light. Insert the Blue wire and squeeze and
snap as before. - Place a “Quick Connect” connector over the negative (-) side wire (any chassis ground) and insert
the black wire. Squeeze and snap as before. - Cut the positive (+) side wire between where you attached the Red and Blue wires from the
Smart Stop. - Bond the Smart Stop inside somewhere out of the way with double-sided tape away from areas
of high temperature, moisture and water leakage.
