P1000 Auxbeam control panel?

[Alaska350]

Anyone run one of these? Seems cleaner then having to run all the wires to a big switch panel in the cab. Just curious.

@Adam490 is running one in his talon. I ordered one, getting ready to install it shortly.

I'm running one as well.
It works great but lacks some configuration I can do with normal switches.
For pain old On/Off its great.

Yep, like @Hondasxs said it works great for lights, radio, things like that you only need a simple on/off switch for. Be cool if there was a setting for the Auxbeam to power on whatever accessory automatically when it got power, but from what I can tell you have to press the button every time... I'm also an electrical retard so there's that. I REALLY like just plugging in a couple wires to the switch panel and it's good to go.

Ditto! I've got a new winch coming from the store that I'm hopefully not going to install!

I got one for my Talon as well. Will be installing it shortly. I like the ease of this. My hair got real gray installing otr switches in my pioneer lol. But there worth it.

How are you guys liking the auxbeam so far.

I like it. I went with the upgraded version so I can control colors (to match my sxs) Momentary, and flashing switch options as well.

I installed the 6 button waterproof one. Very clean install, pretty happy with it so far.

I like it. I use it kinda like a key on trigger For some accessories that have a switch that uses multiple functions. So far so good

I installed one I like the panel but if you hook it up to acc it shuts off with the key if you hook it up to constant power you can't turn the lights off on the panel so it runs the battery dead unless someone knows something I don't.

Right. Thats why its designed for like a key on trigger for example.

Need to look into a ACC switch kind of like this one.

AUX & Key-on Rocker Switch, DPDT, ON/OFF/ON.

DPDT ON/OFF/ON switch. OTR Carling V-Series This is a maintained ON/OFF/ON switch, not momentary. Two independently wired LEDs Rated 20A 12V No rear barriers between terminals. Insulated 1/4" female quick disconnect terminals can be used. This is a 10 terminal switch. O-Rings installed on the...

I bought something similar for my HONDA TALON 1000X-4 and have everything almost hooked up. Last thing to do is hook up the Keyed on Power to the ACC cord from the fuse box. I cut the wires from the blue connector and have tried every combo trying to get the fuse box to get power with the key on AND I'm not getting anything.

The fuse box is getting 12V but my screen isn't turning on and the tops of the screws (where you attach your attachments) aren't getting 12V at all (because my ACC isn't getting power when the key is on).

Am I supposed to use just the white wire (which is what I believe I have to do) or do you wire the white and green line together then attach them to the after market ACC wire?

I'm hoping my Honda Factory blue Connect Keyed on wires aren't bad.

In reference to the blue plug.
- White wire with black stripe is key-on.
- Green wire is ground.

If you touched them already you have blown the fuse. Fuse box between the seats

Also, check whatever you are plugging into the blue connector to see if pins are bent.

Then run both white and green to the small post on your stinger.

Should be a 10 amp ACC fuse.

That was it. Use a voltmeter and it took me straight to the problem. You all Rock. Thanks!

I get it, but I like to listen to the stereo when the bikes off or let my whips glow at times .. kinda defeat the purpose of the control box if you are adding rocker switches . Not a great design

That might be your problem though, you’re trying to install it on a bike 🤣 If you put it on a side-by-side you can where are your stereo to a separate switch relay and fuse. That’s the way my stereos wired up. But in the end if you don’t like the switch panel don’t buy it. Buy a fuse and relay box and get you some switches and make your own Panel then you can wear it anywhere you like.
