Re: Diagnostic Light

Jeff,
The two connections to positive power is so that the light can be controlled by the sidecar. Wired this way, flashing control can be initiated in the sidecar. The light has other uses which take advantage of the control input (third connection) on the light.
I am going out on a limb to suggest #18 wire for the light. I will make some inquiries so watch for a team update addressing this.
