ARB Compressor and Locker wiring explained

[@stevewebb3282]

Ditto on the uploaded gold comment. I couldn't figure out why the rocker switch had blades on the back and, what I thought was the switch leg, had spades. I almost threw the little harness away as I don't have lockers. Man I'm glad I saw your video. Thanks for sparing me the embarrassing call to ARB.

Brother, you have uploaded gold!! I just bought my ARB dual and was a bit puzzled with the harness. I use an Auxbeam switch panel and wasn’t sure how to install it exactly. Laying out the harness and walking me through it was incredibly helpful. I’ve subscribed and liked as you deserve. May your video get many views and your channel grow 🎥🙌🏽

Thank you for those kind words and you are quite welcome. Enjoy the compressor. I've run a remote coupling to my front bumper. It's so convenient now to be able to air up without lifting the hood

@@illustriouslaz that’s what I’m doing too. I just need to double check the length of the braided hose. Need to make sure it reaches. I was going to buy the ARB remote hose coupler mount kit, but may just drill into my Ironman bumper instead.

@@CoastalGX i got a braided line from Amazon. I opened up one of the holes on my ARB that is used for mounting the front license plate and just brought the ARB coupler, not the whole kit

@@illustriouslaz perfect. I bought the dust cover because I feel it's a vulnerable place. Ocean spray is ruthless.

@@illustriouslaz I installed it today. NO WAY I would’ve figured it out solo. I have the air coupler on the top since I’m still waiting on the 1.5m arb reinforced steel line. This thing is a game changer and I’m so dang thankful. Once again, way to go!!

For the switch panel wiring, why do we not need to connect the black/ground wire to the negative terminal on the switch panel? Thanks for the help!

[@illustriouslaz]

You have 2 black/ground wires. One goes to the switch panel, the other goes to the negative battery terminal. The set of wires that would go to the rocker switches are the ones you connect to your switch panel. Right around the 8:35 mark in the video you'll see a set of wires around my switch panel block, that black wire is goes to the switch panel but to actually power the compressor you need to run the red and black wires that make up the power harness, that thicker set of wires to the battery. Hope that explanation wasnt too confusing.
