Roadshock Led Wiring Diagram [TRUSTED]
This report covers wire color codes, function identification, standard relay harness integration, and troubleshooting common connection issues. 1. Objective To provide a definitive wiring diagram and pinout for Roadshock LED light bars, enabling correct installation for off-road, utility, or automotive lighting. Incorrect wiring can lead to blown fuses, damaged LEDs, or fire hazards. 2. Wire Color & Function Identification Unlike some generic LED lights, Roadshock uses a standardized 3-wire pigtail (for combo/spot/flood models) or a 2-wire pigtail (for single-function driving lights). 2.1 3-Wire System (Dual-Function: Low/High or Backlight + Main Beam) Found on Roadshock 6.5" Spot/Flood Combo & some 12" bars with backlight.

For specific model variations (e.g., the 4" Cube lights), refer to the included manual – but the color code remains consistent across the Roadshock line as of 2020-2025 production. Incorrect wiring can lead to blown fuses, damaged
| Wire Color | Function | Connection Destination | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Ground (Chassis Negative) | Vehicle chassis or battery negative (-) terminal | | White | Main Beam Positive (+12V) | Relay output terminal #87 (high current) | | Yellow | Backlight / DRL Positive (+12V) | Relay output terminal #87a OR switched accessory fuse | Note: Do not connect both White and Yellow to the same +12V source simultaneously unless the harness is rated for combined amperage. The backlight (Yellow) draws significantly less current than the main beam. 2.2 2-Wire System (Single-Function) Found on older Roadshock pods or basic 4" lights. Fuse (30A) ---->
