Title: wiring spots with switchable earth
Post by: vauxfan2k on 09 January 2009, 18:13:00

hi guys

Got a set of Wipac's for the 4x4, and being a jap motor it has a switchable earth system instead of the usual setup, Obviously the instructions that came with my lights will be no use,

can anyone advise what I need to do?

thanks  :y

If this is a Pajero or not they are switched on the negative side of the switch. So the switch itself is always live.

Have a look here, it will sort you out  ;)
