How to change light pattern on etl5000

[Explorer dude]

i have an etl5000 light bar. I am trying to change the flash pattern and I think I need to get to the breaker box? Where would this be located? And how do I change the pattern?

If I remember correctly, the breakout box is an external interface box that the bar plugs in to. Without that, I don't think you can change the patterns.

Here is Sound Offs spec sheet on it: https://www.soundoffsignal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Breakout-Box-Install-Sheet.pdf

Thanks. But how do I advance the flash pattern?

Well if you actually looked at the link I posted...it shows on page one that the white wire is the pattern select wire. On page two it states: "Pattern Select - Momentarily activating the pattern select input will cause the activated light heads to advance one flash pattern. Also, when used in conjuntion with the cruise mode pattern select input will toggle the cruise mode setting."

Want me to read it out loud?

Not trying to be difficult, promise. I found the white wire, what do I touch the white wire with, or what do I connect it to, so the pattern changes?

Tap it to 12v then release. Each time you do that should advance the pattern.

Where is the 12v wire? Or do I use something else?

Positive side of the battery

Yes, 12v is the positive side of the battery.
