I recently noticed that one of my recent bars was not the normal basic Excalibur I come across. It has strobes on the outer part. Only the back on one side works. I powered up 2 steady lights on the inner area with a loud steady horn type sound. The arrow stick does not work and lots of other wires do mostly nothing. The bulbs look fine. I am not familiar with this type of bar. I can find little info. I did find one in parts on a website but it looked like a deluxe version with more strobes. Any info anyone has would be helpful to get it working.

Okay that’s interesting. I had a strobe excalibur and it was basically the same way, but had flashers front and rear lower and then just outer strobes.
I remember correctly for wiring its:
Solid red and red/black paired with the green wires control strobes (front and rear)
Yellow wires are alleys
Orange wires are for takedown
Either blue can be for center option (if had speaker center both blues are for speaker wires)
White/black is sweep wire
And cant remember what solid white was for

I read the manual from tsquale, it is informative. It does mention red and/or red/blk with green/blk. Going to hold off on arrow stick. Having enough difficulties with the bar.

Red and green/blk still only do front strobes.
Red/blk and green/blk do nothing.
Red and green/blk are only front strobes

Before the one rear side only worked with red. The rear side will not turn on anymore using those wires. Just kind of odd. It should work according to the manual. nothing on the bar looks modified.
