Wiring Questions:
Does the white wire have to be connected?
Yes, the white wire has to be connected to a 12-volt source.
This circuit allows the switch to activate the relay, which draws power from the battery to
the lights. If you do not want your KC's to be activated with your High
or Low beam lights, then you can use your fuse box or your battery as
an alternative
12-volt source.
What is the Amp draw of my KC lights?
Amp draw is a simple mathematical calculation. Divide the total number
of watts by the system's volts. For example, a 100-watt bulb in a 12-volt
system will draw 8.3 amps.
(100w / 12v = 8.3a)
What is the purpose of using a relay?
Using a relay keeps the high current portion of the circuit away from
the switch and pulls the current directly from the battery to your KC's.
The relay also allows you to tie your lights into a secondary 12-volt
circuit such as your high/low beams or ignition.
Identify Your KC Lights:
How do I identify which lights I have?
Most all of our lights have the letters KC and a 4-digit number on the
Lens, which can be used to identify which type of light you have. By comparing
the shape and size of your light to the light Series pictured in the section of our web site, you can select the matching Series
and find the 4-digit Lens number in the chart to determine which light
you may have and the replacement parts available for that light.
Types of Lighting:
What's the difference between the types of light patterns?
We basically have 4 different types of light patterns:
Driving - Flood - Fog - Long Range
The differences between these patterns can be viewed on our page.
