Wiring Baja S2's to OEM aux

[jfelten029]

Hey everyone,
So I know how the OEM aux cords work but anyone familiar with Wiring baja designs S2's to them? I got a dual S2 kit for chase lights and the wiring harness has the wires that go from both lights to a relay box and a switch. Do I need to keep the relay box or do I cut the wires before that to run them the aux inputs?

S2 Sports are less than 1 Amp ea (0.9 per spec sheet), so the pair combined is ~2A. The relay isn’t needed and any of the Aux Outputs can handle that load.

I have my 20” Onx6+ (16.6A) run to Aux1 with the original 40A fuse and no relay.

Ok, so I just run power to the aux in the engine bay and ground it wherever? Thank you!

Yup, there are several existing grounds on the inner fender along the edge of the hood opening that I use normally. The connectors and pre-pinned leads make it easy to connect the power of you have that big bag still.

Awesome! Ya, I've got the bag still. Thank you!

I ran my S2 reverse lights directly to an AUX and used one of the factory ground points. I ran a second wire at the same time for a chase light.

That's a good idea, I should try that!

All the AUX power is relay controlled so no need to add more relays unless you're doing some creative switching.
