RIGID 360s are multifunction lights (2 functions). Red Backlight, and a regular light. I wired up 4 of em on my JLUR.

If you want to use more than one function on the 360s, you have to wire one function to one aux switch. The 360s have a separate wire for each function. So I have one aux for red backlights and one aux for regular light.

I suspect the "switch" is a really a controller more than a switch.

Short answer is, use the controller, not AUX, or consider a different light bar.

So, few things. If you do a search you can find a few forums that discuss AUX Switches and Wiring. In theory the idea is the (Red) Positive is the wire you would connect to an aux switch while the (Black) Negative goes to ground.

So, for example, you would run the Black to Ground, Red to the Aux Switch #4 in either the cabin or Engine bay. Once you hit Aux 4, it powers the lights.

But, to switch modes, you would have to first hit Aux 4, then use the supplied switch to change modes.
Thanks, that was very helpful.

You're welcome. Good luck, but as I said, it might be better to start with a simpler Lighting Bar first.

What do you mean here?
Sorry. I meant the hole in the firewall that I can pass a wire through. Mine seems to have stuff blocking the way, compared to the videos I've seen online, seems the 3.6 doesn't have things in that location.

I had to route it through from the inside, took forever to find the end. My hands couldn't even reach.
