Just curious, if i change the polarity on the motor for a rotator (Whelen RB6) will that reverse the direction the motor spins? Thanks!

I'm not an expert on this but, you have to make sure that the motor ground side isn't grounded to the lightbar.
if the ground is isolated, you could try it (or fry it )...............;)
