Foggy Mornings & Dusty Trails | INTRODUCING the all-new KC FLEX ERA® 3 Dual Mode SAE Fog Lights

[Mx5red]

We were starting out wit the JL Forum. It isn't free for us to be on the forums. So we wanted to see how much engagement we got on the JL forums first. I'll follow up with the team on this.

I figured that was the case. Well you guys are killing it lately with the flex series!

Thank you! Just wait to see what we got coming out next! Couple of really cool things in the works.

The other side of "y" would plug into a 2 pin connector to our fuse, relay, switch harness. This would give control to the bottom spot beam. Turning that on would turn on all 3 lights at once for both sets. You could use our provided switch. I would recommend using an auxiliary switch system if you have one to avoid drilling a hole to install our provided switch. Mopar Switches, Spod, Trigger, Switch Pros, something like that. But yes you can use the switch we provide if wanted.

Just got the lights installed and want to wire to my aux switch box, but the switch wiring has 3 wires, red black and yellow, while my switch system only provides for power and ground, leaving the yellow "supply" wire or red "load" wire unattached. Which do I use for power, and what do I do with the other one?

EDIT: I just realized what supply and load were, and that my switch box already provides power supply, so I connected the red load wire to it and left the yellow supply wire free, and everything works now.

Yes it should fit as long as the steel isn't thicker than 3/8" to get the washer and lock nut fully seated.

The harness has a "y" split. The Jeep version has a compacitor in it because Jeep likes to complicate things, lol.

One side is a 3 pin connector that would plug into the light.

One side would plug into the factory harness. As long as that is still installed in your Jeep, shouldn't be an issue. There is a plug on the passenger side to remove the harness to the two factory fogs. Some people remove it with aftermarket bumpers. Our "y" harness would plug into that harness that plugs into each factory location plugs. This would give you control from the factory button in the cab to turn on the top two projector style fogs in each light.

Hope that all made sense. Let me know if you have any other questions. I wired my Offroad mode to my 10" flex amber bar. So when I turn on my amber bar, it turns on the SAE Offroad Mode.

Do you have any more pictures of the Flex 3 along with the 10” Flex Array? What do you have for cowl lights if any?

I really like the idea of the Flex 3 fog, new array 10” on the bumper loop and a couple of single arrays on a small cowl bracket for ditch lights (something not too obtrusive).

any better ETA on the new flex array, last I think I saw was 3-4 months away.

@KC HiLiTES I got these lights in today and upon connecting them to make sure everything works, I found the lights will just flash two or three times and then just stay off? Do I need to flash the system to get the Jeep to accept the new lights even though the previous fog lights were LEDs also?

I don't have a ton of pictures with both the FE3 SAE and the OLD 10" bar on. You can see them both on in this picture though. Yes I have several other lights also. If you got a set of FE4 angled out on your cowl (or FE3 if you want smaller), then when the new 10" comes out, put that facing forward on your bumper. That would cover most people's needs. Still the same ETA, we don't have a set in stone date yet.

No you shouldn't need to flash it. I'll send you a private message and see if I can help figure out the issue.

If you had the OEM LED lights, you need to use JSCAN to switch the Wrangler back to the non-LED fogs. The KC lights come with a device built into the wiring harness that allows them to work on non-LED Wranglers and the easy way to fix is to change the setting in JSCAN. Worked for me.
