ClassicLEDs LLC 1967 and 1968 Mustang Sequential LED System CLE30015S Thank you for your purchase. This is the latest design of our 1967 and 1968 Mustang sequential LED system. There have been several major changes. Our newest change allows you to customize the running lights. You will find a small additional control board covered with black heat shrink. This small board contains a small dip switch. You will be allowed to have the outer rings remain bright while the running lights are in operation. You will now be able to select five options of running lights. The running lights will now be much brighter and outline EACH section. Or, you may select to have the entire section remain dim as the OEM look has. OPTION ONE Select dip switch 2" to on. This is how the boards are shipped. The outer ring will remain bright with all other LEDs off OPTION TWO Select dip switch 4" to on. This allows the second ring of LEDs to remain bright with all other off OPTION THREE Select dip switch 2" AND 4" to on. This allows the outer and second ring of LEDs to remain bright with all others off OPTION FOUR ENSURE DIP SWITCH 2" AND 4" ARE IN THE OFF POSITION WITH 2" AND 4" AND 6" IN THE ON POSITION THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL NOT BECOME BRIGHT With dip switch 2" and 4" in the OFF POSITION, select dip switch 6" to the on position This allows only the CENTER OF EACH SECTION to remain bright with the running lights on ENSURE DIP SWITCH 2" AND 4" ARE IN THE OFF POSITION WITH 2" AND 4" AND 6" IN THE ON POSITION THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL NOT BECOME BRIGHT OPTION FIVE Select dip switch 8" to on. This allows the entire section of lights to be dim to allow the OEM running lights look. You may use this option with any option above. Option One Switch 2 Option Two Switch 4 Option Three Switch 2 and 4 Option Four Switch 6 Option Five Switch 8 OPTION SIX Selection dip switch 4" AND switch 8" This allows the entire section to be lighted with one ring bright. TEST FOR PROPER OPERATION BEFORE DRIVING YOUR MUSTANG Option Six Switch 4 and 8 The boards are now a white material. This improves the reflective surface and the overall appearance of the LEDs. Our new wire harness allows you to hide the wires within the OEM or aftermarket wire covers. Or, you may tuck the harness under the light buckets. If you wish to push the OEM sockets into the hole (after removing the bulb), we suggest you use a round file to create an opening you can push the wires into. ENSURE you do not allow the socket to contact and cut the wires. You may be required to replace the older metal flasher with a new electronic flasher. A heavy duty is not required nor is a no load. These are available at your local parts store. ENSURE YOU REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL FLASHER AND NOT THE EMERGENCY FLASHER Page 1 of 5
Additionally, you will find a button coming out of the control unit. Due to numerous request, you may now stop the sequence mode. To stop the sequence operation: Ensure the turn signal handle is centered, (no turn signal) press the white button on the control unit once. Repeat steps to restart the sequence mode. Ensure proper operation before driving. You will also find an extra GREEN wire within the harness with the yellow tie. This wire is used if your wire harness has a separate brake ONLY wire. If not, this wire is not used. Each board connects to the control unit thru the wire harness. The control unit is placed in the wire harness and is covered with a heat shrink wrap. Ensure you place this at a location it will not be covered when the trunk is loaded. Ensure the ends are clear. This allows air to flow freely over the computer chip and keeps the board dry. Should the battery be located in the trunk or there is a CONSTANT 12 VOLT POWER SUPPLY, you may attach the cable there. A small inline is recommended. Ensure you install the fuse jumper (included) on the fused side of the taillight fuse. ClassicLEDs is a small family owned business. We manufacture ALL our products in Oregon. This system must be connected to a CONSTANT 12 VOLT POWER SUPPLY. Due to the size of the board and number of LEDs, this is required to complete each electronic cycle of the turn signal CHECK FOR POWER WITH THE KEY IN ON AND OFF POSITION During installation, do not allow the LED boards to rest against metal portions of the body. The boards are coated to prevent corrosion, but allowing contact to the body during operation may cause a short circuit. While installing the system, it is advised that after connecting the LED board INPUT wire to the OEM harness, you check for proper operation of each side before mounting boards. Operation: The LED lamp substitutes for 1157 in the tail lamp. This kit is designed so the original OEM look is maintained until the board is lit and in operation. The LED board operates as, tail, signal and brake lights. During installation, do not allow back of LED boards to rest against metal portions of the body. The boards are coated to prevent corrosion, but allowing contact to the body during operation may cause a short circuit. System will not operate properly without a front turn 1157 signal bulb installed. Installation: No modification is necessary to install the LED boards 1. WIRE HARNESS OUTLINE a.
