  3. If the pairing is successful, all the lights will be red. If pairing fails, all lights will be blue.

  4. If manual pairing fails once, please try again.

  5. If there are two or more cars installed with the same ambient light kit in close proximity there could be an issue of interference between them and to prevent this it is recommended to follow below instructions:
    a. After completing the installation and pairing for a particular vehicle, do not turn off the vehicle power and keep the ambient light in ON mode before proceeding to the next vehicle.
    b. After completing the installation and pairing of one vehicle completely disconnect the positive and negative terminals of the car battery or disconnect the power connections of the main and subsidiary controllers , and then pair the next car
    c. Keep the two vehicles approximately 40 meters apart.

  6. This kit has auto-pairing function, which means the main and subsidiary controllers will pair automatically when they are powered ON. If the main controller and all the subsidiary boxes pair normally and appear to be working properly, there is no need to manually pair them.
