Any one have one of these yet? I read the horror stories of the wiring but I believe I can do it. ( may take a few cold ones but what the heck right? ) Looks really cool. OBB

oHIobellboy · « **Reply #8 on:** November 21, 2007, 02:49:58 PM »

well here it is, I chose to mount this to the bumper lip instead of the tailgate because I didn't want some rugrat tearing it off. After a few hours trying to find a good Hot wire in the back of the truck I said the hell with it and ran it str8 to the battery with an inline fuse and just tapped the other wires in the taillight housings. I found some old phone wire laying around and was able to push it from the back of the truck to the front wheel well through the frame. The pix will show where in the back and the front, also the fuse and the splice in the rear under the bed. The pix of the lights aren't the best as it was a little bright out when I took them. ( Shoulda washed the truck first!) I havn't mastered much with video so I may try to play with that and post on youtube. The turnsignals were real hard to photograph but you can see the amber lights lit up to the ends. I used some really good sealant that comes in strips to bundle up the back splice, this stuff is just about bombproof yet remains flexible in case you would have to remove it. It is a lot of fun looking in your mirror at the people behind you looking at it and making coments. Just wish I could see it! LOL

I think mine is hooked up that way. ~~If only i can crack the combination to get you set up.~~

Did you wired the bar to only 1 tail light? I think if you wir them up to both tails it should work.

Thats what i thought. The whole bar will blink. I think mine does that too.

....say.....is yours connected to the parking lights? Does it lit when running the lights? or it only comes on when applying brakes?

[/quote]No, into the turn signals. I have the diode kit that came with it, but when I spoke to Plasmaglow last week they told me that they quit shipping them due to problems. I just didn't wire mine up with them. IMO, I kinda like the added shock to the people behind me when I hit the brake and all of a sudden there's 60" s of led letting them know I'm in front of them. LOL, btw, mine does not flash with the hazards. just stays steady red.

Quick check,

Fire and Ice or Firestorm? I have to do something to my baby when I have her for two weeks in October. I'm still trying to decide on how to up the ponies so I'll be working on something a bit easier for now. I have looked at both of these lighting systems but I wanted to hear from the people who do or have actually used them. I don't mind splicing into the wiring so the tech side isn't a problem. Has anyone had reliability issues from either? Pros or Cons?

I like what I had seen with the Firestorm but I didn't want the hassle of always unplugging my trailer lights with the Fire and Ice. How long did you have yours? Did you have any issues with the weather, condensation or anything?

If you get the "T" adapter that plugs in the wiring harness under the truck, You won't have to splice into anything nor will you have to unplug your LOF evreytime. It is $29 but worth it in my opinion.

The only thing the fire & ice gives you extra is reverse lights which in my opinion isn't worth the extra cost.

Main One · « **Reply #35 on:** September 03, 2009, 10:47:14 AM »

Yes, the t-adapter works well - I've been using one for 6 years now.

I've used a couple of different line of fire models from different manufacturers. They were all red leds, without any sequential action. Running, brake, turn signal and hazard functions.

The problem I've had is with part of the stock part of my truck that drives these signals going to the trailer wiring harness. The running light function (lower intensity than the brake light or turn signal levels) quit working. At first I suspected a poor connection and then replaced my LOF but that didn't fix the problem. Replacing the module did fix the problem, but the problem has returned again, this time driving a different brand of LOF. I suspect a design deficiency with this module. Maybe others though don't see this problem and there is some other issue with how I have installed my LOFs.

I wonder if that is the problem with my 01 Silverado. I don't have running lights on my LOF or any thing that I am towing. Brake lights work fine. Where is the module at and how much does it cost? Any other symptoms of the module going out?

Sounds like that could be your problem too. I think the module was around $100. I just checked the Autozone web site, and it looks like this may be one of those things you have to get from GM. I figured it out through looking through the schematics of my CD-based GM service manual. I'll have to check that again when I get home and get back to you. I can't recall how difficult it was to change - that is a good thing because if it was a b#$^@ I'm sure I'd remember that. I'm thinking it was located up behind the dash but I'll double-check with the service manual.

I've thought it might be a good idea to just cut the dang running light wire from the module to the trailer lights and run it from the trailer connector instead to my taillights - would want to further research that before pulling the trigger though....

A "T" adapter won't work with the firestorm. I tried to wire it in to my trailer harness but the T.H. doesn't send out a long enough pulse to make the scanning lights work properly.
I ended up splicing in behind the tail lights. I've heard that you're not supposed to splice into that harness because of the computer boards
but it's been on for about 18 months now without anything under the hood going bad.

Donnie,

I'm glad you prompted me to look into this again because after reviewing the schematics this evening, I don't think our current problem matches my previous one. I guess memory is the first thing that goes when you're getting old.

It looks to me like we should be making sure a 15 A fuse in the underhood fuse block that feeds the trailer parking lights would be a good thing for us to check.

I believe I previously replaced the turn signal multifunction module, to fix the LOF stoplight and/or turn signal function. Those signals (the ones directed to the trailer connector that is) are sourced by this module, but the parking light power is driven by a single relay which drives all bulbs that come on with the parking lights. It puts power to 3 or 4 fuses, one of them being the TRLR PARK fuse. From there, it's just wiring and connectors back to the trailer connector for that signal.

If I wouldn't have cracked it putting my Tailgate torsion bar on it would still be as good as new. As a result on my stupidness I've lost half the reverse lights and about 6 leds on the brake lights. (all on the passenger side) the scanning ambers still work just fine.

Did the whole thing quit working or just a few lights? If the whole thing quit working, check the trailer light fuse. The one on my Silvy was out and I thought my LOF was the wrong one, I ordered the running light version and it wasn't working. Once I changed the fuse, presto, it started working.

The whole thing quit working. I haven't looked into it yet; one of the first things I'll check is just to make sure it's still plugged in and that the wire is not broken. Next will be to see if there are any blown fuses. I figure I'm way ahead of the game as it's been on the truck for 7 years. It's one of the original Altec Line-of-Fire models. I noticed last weekend when I was sweeping out the bed of the truck that the plastic is yellowing pretty badly.

I crawled underneath the truck today and everything looks intact. I checked the fuse(s) - it looks like there are 4 fuses for the trailer wiring on the 02 Avalanche. One for each turn signal, one for the parking lights, and one for the reverse lights. Did I miss any? They were all intact so I guess the next thing to try is to run 12V to the pins on the LOF and see if it works. I'm betting it's shot so that give me an excuse to get a new scanning LOF.

MBT, from what I've been reading lately, there is now an adapter for these that will make it work without hardwiring it. I don't know how true that is. I tried the trailer wires on mine at first but the pulse for the turn signal want long enough to make the scanning ts go the complete distance. I had to wire mine into the wires behind the housing.

I've seen references to the adapter also but I think I'm going to try the Recon unit. It says it only needs a 12V signal and the 4-pin trailer plug to make it work properly. It should be a piece of cake since I can pick up the 12V output from the 7-pin trailer plug.

I have the adapter on ours. All you do is separate the the big round plug behind the bumper and put the adapter in. It has a flat 4 plug coming off of it. found ours at Lowes for $29.

Donnie - he's talking about a plug-in adapter for the Plasmaglow scanning LOF that allows you to hook it up without tapping into the wiring, not the one you indicated. I've already got that one.

So the Plasmaglow Firestorm comes with several bare wires that need to be spliced?? Does anybody have a wiring diagram? My girlfriend wants one of the Plasmaglow Firestorms for Christmas, I found the 48" at autoanything for $133.?? but can't find the 60".
Thanks!

Wow, $145, that's a pretty good deal! Now for the wiring diagram!

comes with it...not hard to do

Thing to remember. IT MUST be wired to the turn signals either in the back run wires up to the front. The trailer harness does not give a long enough pulse to make the scanners run the whole length.

I'm pretty sure I found them on Fleabay also. I haven't done anything with mine yet; I'm not too crazy about crawling around on the cold ground right now.

I don't blame you, crawling around on the cold ground sucks. I need one of those big well lit, warm garages, kind of like the install garages for BestBuy or something like that.
