Raymond Dittman Posted February 6 Member ID: 2,444 Content Count: 3 Reputation: 1 Joined: 02/06/2024 Status: Offline Last Seen: February 12 Share Posted February 6 I recently purchased a gently used 2020 Cam-Am Defender HD8 XT. It has power windows, with the wiring harness in the roof exposed. All added features were performed by the Can-Am dealership, all Can-Am parts. I would like to add a dome light as well as a bar light. The installed harness has 4 extra wiring ports, but have no clue as to what they may be for. One would guess the larger ones designated as wiper installation, and possibly a light bar. There are 2 smaller sets consisting of two wires, one with black and white, the other black and red. Can anyone provide any information as to what these may be used for, are they live, switched, ignition activated…? Can I use any of these for dome light or light bar? Do I need to run new wiring harness? I’ve enclosed 2 pictures hoping this may help. I’ve attempted reaching out to BRP inquiring about this 3 times to no avail…what’s the norm?

Two of the green and black ports serve windows.Any insight as to what the 4 extra sets of wires are for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red set should be constant when the ignition is on and the purple set is switched with the windshield wiper switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
