Pop quiz, hotshot. (Hopefully some of you will catch the "Speed" reference.) You have several lighting or other vehicle accessories that you need to get wired into your vehicle. You need fused power sources, and you need relays and switches. What do you do?
Well, you could install individual wiring harnesses and have a spaghetti-like mess of wires crawling off of your poor battery. You could also spend $400-$600 for a high end solution, such as an SPOD or Switch Pros setup. Or, if you're like me, you might just be happy with a lower priced, but well thought out system....such as can be found in the Waterproof Fuse Relay Box. What is it? Well, it's named fairly appropriately. ;-) According to the maker of this little gem, "Waterproof Fuse Relay Box is the best option to control your accessories and clean your messy vehicle wiring for a low affordable price!" I think I'd have to agree with that statement....

this is exactly what ive been looking for . cleaning up my samurais wiring and i have relays and wiring everywhere . thankyou for sharing this itll definitely help clean up this mess
this is awesome.. i bought all these parts totally seperate ...i am going to wire i think just like you did...i totally understand you man thats cool
Just bought one last weekend. Hopefully it is here tomorrow so I can get my TJ squared away.
I just ordered one of these,should have it in a few days.
I have this unit and love it.
I used the same Bussmen fuse/ relay box in my side by side. The wire connections are all weatherpak connects, it was super easy to wire up and makes for a very clean install. If you want to wire your own you can get these boxes for less then $30.
Linksys I'd love to get my own box and wire it myself
Thanks for the info. I got a mess in my tj. Looking for something affordable. Thanks again.
I bought one of these last year. Still haven't installed it yet. I'm pretty intimidated by it.
lucky you, I had to drill in 2 screws to hold in the Daystar switch panel to the dash. very common with these panels if you check out the forum's.i have a 2013 2 DOOR.
Nice system, I️ built the d-box and just took it out and ordered this. Should be here Friday quick shipping for being in DE from MD. I️ seen a few post on jk freaks and others bout his system.
It's a great solution! I still run it and have no issues! Thanks for the comment.
Hey CPO love the video and I just bought my very own WPFRB my question is when I go to hook up my lights I pretty much just hook the positive and negative wires from the box of the same colors to the neg and pos of the lights....
Thanks for the video. Question: What do you do for the grounds for the lights? And what do you do with the grounds for the switches? Diagram looks like only power is going to either from the fuse box, so just wondering how you handled the ground in each case. Thanks.
nice setup. so I see your doing a switch to power the winch in/out switch.. I'm planning on the same thing... good idea so you don't accidentally hit in/out.. hah...
Can you direct me where I can buy the system with the wires pre-done? I need this asap please. I can buy the switches at a later time.
Show how you wired the in/out switch. That’s interesting.
I know this is a old post but I am interested in how you wired the switches into your light dimmer
So how did you wire one of the constants to four separate switches?
Hey do i need that cylinder fuse to actually use the relay box?
Do you have any photos of where you passed your wires through the firewall on the drivers side?
Overclock3D please conform whom to procure this from? Specifically, who can I speak with to order longer leads? Thnx!
What website did you find this on if you don't mind me asking
Hey cool busmen how long did you have your wires made? Thanks
did anyone figure out what to do with all of you negative wires on your light bars? where do you wire those into?
How or what did you use to make your own wiring diagram ?
I have the Bussman relay box 15303-5 - a number of switches send a ground signal to activate the relay (vs a + trigger) - is there a way to trigger the a / or some relays (pin 86) on the 15303-5 using a ground signal ?
where did u get the fuse and relay kit would like to get one but cant find it anywhere please get back to me on this
Where did you get the cool switches?
Where do I get this product? Have looked high and low and can’t locate where to get this exact setup. Plenty of places to get just the block.
Can't seem to get a message to you. Messenger not working. Looking for one to fit under the hood of a keep renegade. Have you done one yet for these? Not sure where it would fit.
Hi there! great review! This might be a dumb question but who made this for you and where can I buy one? I was going to take a deep breath and tackle this project myself but I really like the cleanliness of this setup.
I built it! Please contact me @ bodoke0326@gmail.com
How much wire did you have to add to get to switches for the center of dash? Also was the length of the battery cable long enough stock or did you have him add wire to be able to get to same area under hood? I read your review and think you did a great job! Got that Jeep looking good!
+James Rickett Thanks! I asked him to make mine 10ft. and that was just about perfect to get to the switches from where I have mine mounted. I ended up cutting off less than I foot if I recall correctly. The battery cable was just fine but I had it 10ft too. Best thing to do is figure out where you want to mount it, and measure your estimated run to the battery.
I don’t think you FB supplier is making them anymore. He hasn’t posted or replied to anyone since December 2018?
+OVERCLOCK3D - CPO - , would you mind explaining which was the dimmer cable you used in the passenger side? (3:43 into the video)... I have a 15 JKU which would most probably have the same wiring as yours, so wanted to pick your brain on it if you dont mind... Thanks in advance!!
I have a 2016 Rubicon and I used the power window switch harness and it was the skinny orange wire to the power window switches. This wire can be easily reached from either right or left sides.
No apologies necessary. This detail explains vs by guess and by golly trial and errors
Thanks
Do you get any parasitic drain on your battery by having all your switches (which I assume are illuminated) hooked to the 12v constant?
Den Bradshaw none of my switches are illuminated when the Jeep is off. The LEDs are fed by the dimmer circuit and the switched power.. which of course is off when the switch is off.
I have this but have yet to install it because frankly I do not know how to route the cable inside the cab? Where is the entry point thru the firewall on the JKU 2016 ?
Should be the same as on the 15? I show it briefly in this video at 3:34, but you may be able to see it better in my Rock Hard 4x4 Cage install video.... Look at about 5:45 and 7:18 and 12:35 in this video: ruclips.net/video/uii3iY9WDHM/видео.html
My friend.you.show.many.of.vidio.wiring.for.car.&truck
Tell us where to buy it!!!!!!!
What about all the negative wires? Where / what did you do with all of those?
josh klein did you ever hear from Chris on this? I have the same question. I'm guessing you ground the negative wires on the accessories to the body but not sure.
Never heard. Maybe soon...?
Just ground to the frame or bare metal or the body, or a factory ground bolt
You can ground to the chassis or if you really wanted to run wire, to the battery.
does that company have a website i can get that item ??
What switch panel is that.
Joshua Wright Daystar
I did a search online and could not find it, where did you get it?

@@o3djeeps I thought you bought it off Ebay for some reason. I found a similar one for $150, but didn't come with the same length of wires, the wire loom or the fuse. I have a fuse that bought when I thought about making my own relay box.
How did you wire the ground wires from your accessories?
knightryderbelow ground to the frame, bare metal on the body, or a factory ground bolt. Ground in a car simply means the chassis. If you wanted you could also run all the way back to the battery negative but that's a lot of wasted wire
Kyle Vanwinkle I have multiple accessories to ground what about a bus bar? Would that be overkill? Makes sense about not wasting a bunch a wire, just wanna do it as professional as possible with out any future problems. Tell me what you think?
knightryderbelow you can use a bus bar but grounding to the chassis will work just as well and save wire. Looking professional is more about using wire loom and proper wire routing and termination
Kyle Vanwinkle Awesome! Thanks for your help!
😊😊😊
how did you get your switch panel to stay? mine is almost as if it will not "clip" and it falls out and looks terrible. Thank you, and i am also wondering where i could potentially purchase this.
+Mud-Junkie34 Hmmm... mine clipped in pretty solid, so I am not sure how better to help you there. You can find them at jeepsneeds.com/products/waterproof-fuse-relay-box-wfrb
+OVERCLOCK3D - CPO Is this item No longer available??
It's still available direct from the maker. facebook.com/Waterproof-Fuse-Relay-Box-1391112501215493

Is there another way to contact your friend? I do not have facebook.
All I have to say is spod
You can build that yourself at home for about $50 and 4 hours
Get real. No you couldn't.
Probably $50 just for the wire, plus the box, relays, fuses, and 4 hours of work. I make $25 a hour, so it's cheaper to just buy it already done.
Handmade in Maryland + Mexico sticker = Mistake
Does hand assembled make you feel better? :-)
Most goods are hand assembled. Some in China, some in Taiwan, but probably not in Maryland, if it says "Mexico"...
+DJH com well... Tell that to my friend who makes them... Spending hour after hour crimping and cutting --- making these things -- in Maryland, where he lives. Of course he buys the components - which are probably not made in Maryland, in order to build these for you to buy so you don't have to make them on your own.
Ah, I understand. I expected that the person making these is making all of the components, except possibly the wires. Therefore the Mexico sticker brought some confusion. But yours is the best wiring video I've seen so far.
+OVERCLOCK3D - CPO - your explanation makes sense. Very nice video, and no , I didn't fall asleep !
when he says JK 10 million times does that mean he's joking or he has a JK. JK Jk Jk JK JK jk jk jk jk jk
Honestly that jeep engine bay suggests that jeep has never been off road. Just saying.
Honestly... Over 400 videos on this channel, most of them centering on this Jeep... You watch one, and render your opinion. Seems legit. You sure burned me.
Maybe he doesn't beat the shit out of his Jeep and cleans it. Not everyone wants a shitbox.
