Does any one know how to install this controller, there are 4 leads coming off it, where do they go? to the motors in the engine bay or where they intended to splice in the cab? HELP PLEASE!

I hid the controller in the column...and leave it set to 0% so I can close the headlights. To make them sleepy, I just push in the retract button a little (before the click); the longer I hold it the higher they go. Push fully in, they pop up...push again, they close.

really thought my post told you exactly what to do.



but let me spoon feed you...



red wire - splice it into the grey as shown above.



then cut the brown wire from the stock retract switch (or R/Y if you have a RHD, I think)...as described above.



then splice the yellow wire into the harness side of the brown wire, as shown above.



then splice the now grey(red spliced in) wire to the switch side of brown wire...as shown above.



Finally terminate the black wire to a GND location, as shown above.

excuse me if I wasn't clear on what the retract button is...if you look at the picture of my interior...find my horn on the left side...then look for my fuel gauge...now find the button just to the left of the fuel gauge that is almost the same shape as my horn button.



you have to pull the cluster and unclip the connector that plugs into the back of that button.



I think anyone reading this thread should be able to install this controller. Please let me know if I have left something out.
