CAUTION! To prevent damage to the electronic speed control (ESC) and/or the high-voltage power amplifier, ensure the batter(ies) are
disconnected before plugging the amplifier into the ESC.

High-Voltage Power Amplifier Installation:

1. Install the high-voltage power amplifier (A) on the left side of the vehicle chassis (two screw bosses on top of the battery
compartment). Ensure that the connectors on the amplifier face the front of the vehicle. Secure with the 3x12mm button-head
screws (2). Refer to the assembly diagram (Fig. 4) and wiring diagram (Fig. 7).

2. Remove the 3x25mm button-head screws (2) from the electronic speed control (ESC) to remove the cooling fan cover (Fig 5).

3. Remove the accessory port cover (Fig. 5); then, reinstall the cooling fan cover on the ESC using the 3x25mm button-head screws.
Be careful not to pinch the ESC wires during reinstallation.

4. Plug the 8-pin connector from the high-voltage power amplifier into the accessory port on the ESC (Fig. 6). The amplifier and
lights will turn on when the ESC is powered on.

LED Light Bar Installation:

1. Install the LED light kits; refer to the assembly diagram (Fig. 4) and wiring diagram (Fig. 8).

2. The front grill LED light bar mounts (B) install using the included hardware.

3. The front grill LED light bar(s) (C), windshield LED light bar (D), and rear LED light bar (E) install
as assemblies using the included hardware.

Note: A second front grill LED light bar can be installed and connected using the 2-in-1 wire
harness (part #8489). Two front grill LED light bars and the 2-in-1 harness are included with the
complete kit #8485.

4. Plug the LED light bar connectors into the high-voltage power amplifier ports (white
connector to A, yellow connector to B, red connector to C, blue connector to D) (Fig. 7).

5. Use the supplied zip ties to secure all wiring to the tube chassis.
