Last week, using the information you provided in this video, I was able to use the white center light of my chase light bar to be my automatic backup light. I decided not to use the delay relay you used. The few seconds the light is on after starting it OK with me. Being the input to all lights on my chase bar are just triggers to turn the lights on/off I didn't need any other relays for this. I also get my brake lights and turn signals connected to the chase light. Thanks for the information you provided here, it helped a lot.
I don't have turn signals, so no info there, but for brake lights I tied into the Orange wire with a black stripe in the box wiring harness. If you pull the box out of the machine, there is a connector under the frame rail on your left. That's the box wiring harness. Either the Orange (brake light left) or Orange/Black (brake light right) wire will do. There are other places where you could grab a wire, but that's what I used.
That's a function of the whips. They have a reverse light lead on them. If power is applied to that wire, they go full white, and back to whatever setting I had it on once power is removed from that wire.
Yes, you could do that, but there is an easier way. I ran a wire from a switch in the dash to the output (going directly to the reverse lights) of the relay. The relay will keep the voltage from the switch isolated from your camera power, but the lights will still turn on. The rocker switch current handling capacity is plenty for these lights, so they don't need their own relay. Great comment! Thanks for watching!
Chris I looking at installing reverse light into my 2019 turbo s. I don't see a purple wire on my 19 turbo s. Where was you able to find the schematic?
Hi, Nathan. I got my schematic from the PRO XP forums. The closest wiring diagram that I have to a 2019 Turbo S is a 2020 Turbo XP. They should be the same for wiring though. According to this schematic, the "video turn on" wire is DB/RD (dark blue with a red stripe) coming out of the 16 pin connector at the Ride Command. Of course, I can't be 100%, but that's where I would start. Happy hunting!
Hi there. Sorry, no, this procedure is not possible on an 800. The transmission switch in an 800 is based on resistance so it can't be connected to a simple relay circuit.
i have an xprite chase bar i have everything wired and it strobes but my two light in the middle i want it to be solid running light and brake light when i brake is it possible if so how i have a 2015 rzr Xp 1000.
I'm not sure which model you have. But yes... my middle lights are white but I could turn them on all the time if I wanted to. It's all in how you wire it up, and the limitations of your specific light bar. Not all machines will have a way to do automatic reverse lights though.
That is correct, but an override switch could be installed to cancel that out if desired. I've never turned my camera on manually, but a friend of mine leaves his rear view on all the time and was asking about that. We ended up just doing a manual reverse light switch for him!

Awesome! Glad it helped!
Do you have any videos/info on hooking up your chase bar to your RZR’s break lights and turn signals?
I don't have turn signals, so no info there, but for brake lights I tied into the Orange wire with a black stripe in the box wiring harness.

How do you get your whips to go from white back to multicolor
That's a function of the whips. They have a reverse light lead on them. If power is applied to that wire, they go full white, and back to whatever setting I had it on once power is removed from that wire.
Now could you add a diode to the rear harness so you could add a manual switch on the dash? (I.e don't back feed power to the camera?)
Yes, you could do that, but there is an easier way. I ran a wire from a switch in the dash to the output (going directly to the reverse lights) of the relay.

Would this print work on a 2008 rzr 800,? And if so could I get from you a clear schematic and how much? Thanks and good work

The only problem with this is that anytime you manually turn on the rear camera, it will also provide 12v to that wire
