1. Disconnect Battery. Do not skip this step. Also, do not try to “test” the LED array by connecting the leads directly to your battery. Permanent damage will occur to the LED array if you fail to heed these steps. Handle the LED array by the stainless steel bracket, not by the LEDs or the supporting circuitry.
2. Remove taillight lens and gasket.
3. Remove taillight bulb.
4. Remove the bulb connector from the back side of the taillight. Cut the two wires close to this connector.
5. Install the provided wire guide into the bulb hole.
6. Route the supplied electrical harness through wire guide to the area where connections will be made. Note that the ground connection (green wire) is made through the LED array’s stainless steel bracket.

THEORY OF 6 SERIES IGNITION
CAPACITIVE DISCHARGE
The MSD 6 Series Ignitions feature a capacitive discharge ignition design. The majority of stock ignition systems are inductive ignitions. In an inductive ignition, the coil must store and step up the voltage to maximum strength in between each firing. At higher rpm, since there is less time to charge the coil to full capacity, the voltage falls short of reaching maximum energy which results in a loss of power or top end miss. The MSD Ignition features a capacitor which is quickly charged (within one millisecond) with 460 - 480 volts and stores it until the ignition is triggered. With the CD design, the voltage sent to the coil is always at full power even at high rpm.

In diesel vehicles it is necessary to interface with the wire that turns on the WAIT TO START light in the dash- board. This wire illuminates the bulb until the vehicle’s glow plugs are properly heated. When the light goes out the vehicle can be started. This wire is always available at the connector leading to the bulb in the dashboard. It can also be found at the Engine Control Module (ECM) in many vehicles.
