I recently purchased the mentioned light bar, and I have a FORD Taurus Police Interceptior which has a extra Power wire left in the front end for additional lights. Before this strobes n more light bar, I had a SpeedTechlights one but had to replace it due to water damage issues.
So the SnM E66 comes with several colored wires, red/Black being the standard. Per their instruction the red and purple when wired together with the black as negative are to give you a warning output, the other color wires give you directional and amber which I don't care about. However, despite all this when I wire red/purple and negative appropriately the light flickers or blinks in red/blue and nothing after. (I AM NOT WIRING THE + and - TOGEHTER TO MAKE IT CLEAR). I attempted testing it in my personal car and nothing. I managed to get it to power on and flash in warning mode twice, once in my personal car powering it over a cigarette lighter port and then another time in my Taurus, causing it to flash warning mode... but as soon as I disconnect it stops. I contacted Strobes n More via facebook and they stated I must run the red to direct power (battery) and purple to the existing wire in the car, which I did.... but despite this, nothing happens... the light bar flickers real quick and stops.
I am about to send the light back due to it appearing to be defective, it even blew one of my fuses on my cigarette port which is a 15AMP port and the light is measured at 5 according to Strobes n More.
Anyone had issues with SnM lights before?
