Model SSF-2150 Headlight High Beam Flasher
INSTRUCTIONS MODEL SSF-2150 VEHICULAR HEADLIGHT FLASHER.
NOTE: The use of a flashing headlight system may be regulated by state,
county, or municipal authorities. It is the responsibility of the end user to comply with
these regulations.
NOTICE: The installation of a headlight flasher system requires a modification to the standard headlight wiring
harness. This modification may effect the warranty of your vehicle. It is the responsibility of the end user to
verify the warranty conditions with the vehicle manufacturer. Also, the use of a headligh t fl asher may
shorten the high beam bulb li fe.
IMPORTANT NOTE: BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE INSTALLATION OF THE SSF-2150 HEADLIGHT
FLASHER, THOROUGHLY READ AND UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTIONS AND STEPS SHOWN BELOW!!!
WARNING... DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FROM ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
PART OF THIS INSTALLATION!!!
WARNING... All customer supplied wires that connect to the positive terminal of the battery must
be sized to supply at least 125% of the maximum operating current, and fused at the battery to carry
that load.
1. Mount the SSF-2150 in the engine compartment near the battery and headlights. DO NOT mount the unit
directly on the engine or close to exhaust system.
2. Locate the wire that connects your high beam head-lights to the vehicle high beam control switch (dimmer
switch) and cut it. Connect the WHITE wire from the SSF-2150 to the end of the high beam headlight switch which
has j ust been cut . Connect the BLUE wire from the SSF-2150 to the end of the driver side headlight wire. (see
wiring diagram).
3. Locate the wire that connects the passenger side high beam to the driver side high beam and cut it. Be sure to
cap or insulate the driver side end of this wire before proceeding. Connect the YELLOW wire from the SSF-2150
to the end of the cut wire from the passenger side high beam headlight (see wiring diagram).
4. BLACK WIRE, GROUND (–) to be connected to a good chassis ground.
5. BROWN WIRE, NIGHTTIME CUTOFF FEATURE. If flashing headlights ARE ALLOWED during nighttime
operation, connect the brown wire to a good chassis ground. If flashing headlights ARE NOT ALLOWED
during nighttime operation, connect the brown wire to the positive (+) 12 vol t D. C. wire which is connected to the
vehicle's parking lights. Do not cut the parking light wire, merely "tap" into the circuit.
6. ORANGE WIRE, FLASHER ON/ OFF CONTROL. Connect the orange wire to a customer supplied ON/ OFF
switch rated for at least 200ma. The switch must be connected to positive (+) 12 volt D. C..
7. RED WIRE, POWER SOURCE. Connect the red wire to a high current positive (+) 12 vol t D. C. power source.
Fuse this wire with a customer supplied 15 amp fuse as close as possible to the power source.
8. Check all wiring for good connections. MAKE SURE THE CONTROL SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION.
Reconnect the vehicle's battery to the electrical system.
OPERATION. OPERATION-Turn the headlight flasher control switch to
the ON position. The high beam headlights will alternately flash. If the vehicle's high beam control switch is
activated, the high beams will steady burn. When the vehicl e's high beam control switch (dimmer switch) is
restored to low beam operation, the high beam headlights will resume flashing.
NIGHTTIME CUTOUT OPERATION-When the nighttime cutout feature is used, the SSF-2150 Headlight Fl asher is
non-operational whenever the vehicle's headlight switch is used.
