I recently bought a light bar from a guy on facebook. Found a manual online on how to wire it but it seems I am missing a few wires. The switch i have has a built in relay with 6 wires which I don’t know where any of them go. Any help? I’ve included a pic of the only two plugs/wires I have. This is a “hella” light bar.

edit: the relay switch has a pink wire, an orange wire, a black wire, one thick white wire and one thin white wire, and a thick red wire.

Sorry I really don’t have a clue what I’m doing with this electrical stuff. Is each colored line in that diagram which wire from the relay goes where?

If you want to use the factory light switch on a factory light bar you should download the service manual. Inside the manual are the wiring diagrams with color code to wire it up. Pretty easy to follow and do.

If you want to just light up the factory light bar with an after market on/off switch, follow what WW posted and wire it up to the battery using a fused and relay setup.
