How To Locate The Auxiliary Switches

[Bing]

Fellas, I have a 2022 Black Diamond, I added three small grill lights, nothing too fancy, but would like to connect the power to the Aux switch, but struggling to find the location to connect to. Prefer not to connect the aftermarket adapter directly to the external fuse box. Thoughts?

Thanks,
-Brad

The six Aux switches inside the cabin connect to six relays near the battery junction box. Those relays control power to the 6 Aux circuits.

The circuits themselves are sitting with heat-shrink around the end of the cables near the fuse box. There is also five completely disconnected wires spread throughout the Bronco:

• (1) Fuse box to front grille
• (2) Fuse box to passenger kick panel
• (1) Passenger kick panel to top of windshield
• (1) Passenger kick panel to rear cargo area

Details regarding the Aux circuits (including cable colors) are in the user manual.

SO... if you want to connect your grille lights to an Aux switch, you need to connect the Aux circuit cable of your choosing to the pre-run cable that runs from the fuse box to the grille. Then you connect the grille lights you bought to that (now-connected) pre-run cable.

Hopefully that made sense? If not, ask away.

Thanks so much!!

Connecting the ones below the glove box are a true pain in the neck. My connecting wires seemed way shorter than videos online. I was all contorted upside down for about 20 min wrestling with them. Not sure why Ford just doesn't have connected from factory, I guess the Amp differences but you can use @specialtyperformanceparts adapters for quick change in the engine bay.

Yes, they are. I do not know what an extra 3" would have done to kill ford's budget. By trade I'm an electrician and still find it a complete PITA even with the right tools. Seems to be common across all Ford vehicles with the pass through wires added.

Yeah, the whole time I was thinking if it would have bankrupted Ford to put two more inches on those wires.
