How to Install LED Speaker Rings in Your Boat
Today's blog post on Onlyinboards is a brief instruction on how to install LED Speaker rings in your boat with a step by step process.
Step 1 - Â Disconnect Battery/Batteries
Step 2 - Remove all speaker mounting hardware
Step 3 - Disconnect all wires from speaker. Â Label all speaker wires for easy reinstallation.
Step 4 - Choose which method of powering the LED rings is right for you. Â Examples: Tapping into an existing circuit, adding a new circuit, or wiring the LED rings to a key fob. Â Whichever method you choose, make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommended instructions. Â Protect the circuit by installing the proper size fuse for your application.
Step 5 - Run your wires from the power source to each LED ring. Â (make sure to use proper gauge wire. Â We recommend no smaller than 24 gauge).
Step 6 - Connect the LED rings to the wire you ran in step 5. Â The LED rings come color coded for ease of installation. Â Red for positive and black for negative. Â (The rings will NOT work if connected backwards).
Step 7 - Reconnect your speakers to pre-existing wires that you disconnected in step 3
Step 8 - Reinstall speakers and all mounting hardware. Â Make sure you have sufficient clearance to allow for wires between the speaker and the factory speaker hole. Â In some cases, it may be necessary to slightly notch out a groove in the side of teh pre-existing speaker hole for the wires.
Step 9 - Â Reconnect the battery
Step 10 - Turn on and enjoy!
