Step 2: Route harness along vehicle frame and away from any heat sources. Ty-wrap harness to vehicle frame as you go along.
Route (4) conductor block and common ground through vehicle bulkhead using service accesses. If you need to dill a hole
make sure to inspect the area inside and out before doing so, this will minimize any damage to wires or other vehicle
components.
Step 3: Route control power cable through vehicle bulhead to the batter. Connect terminal ends to battery and tywrap
harness to along the way back to the vehicle bulkhead.
Step 4: Select a suitable mounting spot for sprayer control and install with supplied hardware. Once you have the control
mounted, install harness connectors into the back of the control. Leave some slack in harness so the connector are not
under any strain. Ty-wrap all harnesses to proper points, take up any extra harness length and coil up inside the engine
compartment. DO NOT MODIFY HARNESS LENGTH OR CONNECTORS. Connect sprayer harness to bumper plug, then
test each funtion on the control by switching each function on and off to verify proper installation.
