In-Cab Controller and Wiring Installation
At 29:21 in
I bought a Simple plug and Play salter by Boss 4K
What happens here
Cameron explains the electrical installation for the in-cab controller. The main power and ground wires run directly from the truck's primary battery (always connect to the primary side for safety and power stability) through a 125A or 175A fuse. This main power line then runs along the cowl or frame to the firewall, where it connects to the controller inside the cab. A separate ignition source wire needs to be tapped so the controller turns on and off with the vehicle's ignition. Another wire runs from the controller back to the spreader unit itself. The controller is designed to be easily moved and mounted in different locations within the cab.
Goal: Properly wire and mount the in-cab controller for the salt spreader.
