Tower Light Wiring


old skool malibu

Recommended Posts

I have a 09 VTX with the Illusion XS. I am under the impression that the tower is wired but stops at the tower base. I had a look under the gunnel and did not see any wires coming down. Do I have to drop the tower and pull them our? Are they easily visible inside the leg?

The wires are stuffed up inside the tower on the drivers side. Let me know if you need the malibu diagram for wiring the tower lights I have that.

A buddy came over and I dropped the tower and there they were. I have a pretty pre-built harness with relays, fuses etc that will run from the tower to the dash. I located the tow wires near the mux box and found the grouding bar. Just need to connect the pieces and wait for my lights to arrive from Paul. Thanks

On that subject;

I need to install 2 tower lights on my Illusion X tower, looks like the previous owner use the light wires in the tower for the tower speakers as the wires are red and black #14 gauge. I am thinking of snaking in new wires for the lights and connect to one ACC switch on the dash but I keep ready about relay box and such. What should I do?

Thank you.

I have my lights out and wired up on tower, now what do I need to do to get them hooked up under dash/helm? Do I need to purchase anything?

I am at the same spot with my 2009 LSV.  I have seen the Bakes online scematic wiring diagram but I still am unsure if Relays A & F are in the boat from the factory or I need to supply?  Also I have not found out exactly how to hook the front tower lights and the back tower lights to the MUX switch.

If you find out please copy me so I can move forward with lights on my boat.
