What color wires do I connect a 2 wire back off module to?
I have 1999 Interstate. do you have to have LEDs to make it work?

Thanks in advance, cooldude

Do you have the xp or the wig wag? The back off won't carry more than 3 1157 bulbs. I have an xp on my Stratoliner with LEDs. I want to put a wig wag on the trunk brake lights of my Valk Interstate. Look at Signal-Dynamics web site. They give info on installation and options . You don't need LEDs. On the interstate trunk brake lights I don't know if you could slip LEDs in there. The factory bulbs are wedge base.

I have the SDC  BACK OFF brake light, single module.

Bryan, with the regular back off the red out of the module connects to the feed from the brake light switch, the white with red stripe feeds both trunk brake lights. Now what colors are the interstates brake feed wires. Yikes, my service manual CD wiring diagram schematics are so small I cannot ead them. And the owners manual doesn't give it either. I hope some one knows or has a print schematic that is readable. Sorry I can't help you further.

There's a whole series for the Insterstate and a set for the Standard/Tourer.  But don't thank me, thank RP, he did them and posted them on Rattlebars site.

I've got them printed out on 11 x 17 paper.  One batch is in a notebook in the garage, one in the DFW VRCC "football", our community tool kit.

They're invaluable.
