Z-WAGZ ZZ-2 Plug and Play OBD2 Controlled OE Light Flash Module

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Plug & Play, OBD2-Controlled, OE Light Flash Module

Thank you for purchasing a genuine Z-WAGZ unit, the simplest OBD2-module for flashing OEM lights with a press of a button. This unit comes pre-programmed with 8 different light patterns, some for halogen systems & some for LED systems – see below for full operation information including on-board LED status.

Plug & Play,

Operation:

1. Connect the Z-WAGZ unit to the OBD2 port.
2. Turn Ignition ON (Ignition must be on for proper operation). Leave vehicle in Park.
3. To activate Z-WAGZ:

  • Press and HOLD the high beam lever (5 sec) OR
  • Press and HOLD the provided push button (3 sec) OR
  • Send a 12v (+) signal to the blue wire (designed to be extended for OE up-fitter switches)
  • Pattern 1 will begin to flash. Once pattern 1 begins, the hazards in the gauge cluster will blink 1 time, indicating Pattern 1 has been selected and the LED on the unit will blink BLUE. See chart for remaining pattern color indication.

4. To switch to Pattern 2: (Pattern 1 must be currently active)

  • Engage either turn signal, then press and HOLD the high beam lever once more (5 sec). OR
  • Press & release the provided push button
    The hazards will blink twice indicating Pattern 2 has been selected. Repeat this process to switch to the next pattern.

5. To deactivate Z-WAGZ:

  • Press and HOLD the high beam lever OR
  • Press and HOLD the provided push button OR
  • Release 12v (+) signal to the blue wire (if connected this way)

NOTES:

  • Vehicles equipped with LED lights should use LED patterns (1-4). Vehicles equipped with standard bulbs should use bulb patterns (5-8)
  • Drive Mode (anything outside of PARK gear) will emit its own, separate pattern from whatever pattern is currently selected. This is a limitation of the vehicle and how light data is handled when not in PARK gear.
  • Not all lights on the vehicle are necessarily used, some lights are not controllable via OBD CAN data.
  • Z-WAGZ will retain the last used pattern, even after being disconnected from the OBD2 port.
  • When in Drive Mode, turn signals, headlights & reverse lights will override pattern flashing, until turned off again.
  • For FORD (only), pattern 4 is an ‘Alternative Mode’ pattern. Some vehicles do not respond to typical data, therefore this pattern method was created.
