I'm wiring my LED lights up and want to know more about where I can connect into. The P5 has the smallest battery box in the world and mines already crammed with a harness. (Which could be to my advantage?)

Question is, can I use this sub harness (white, red, yellow) to wire my lights an switches?
The green is my winch. And if I can, do I hook the switch power to the same power as the light itself?
Do I use one color for lights and another color just for switches?

So my next questions would be, can I use the yellow and red for lights also or divergent need to b used for specified horn and alarm?
Next question. I Am running a 21" light bar and 4 2x4" led work lights. Can I hook all these together to the white?

Yes and Yes,
Honda runs both the light bar and the cubes off the white.
You could also use the other wires if you don't plan to install those accessories.
A test light will give you the answers you are looking for.

Backup I know is a single positive.
Horn I would guess both positive and negative.

Electrical is not my forte, so to just make sure I am understanding.
ThIs is the white (led wire) on this harneSs. Which is positive green or white?
Does the switch hook to this or both the switch power and light bar power?
Again sorry for ignorant questions. Just trying to get it right without damage

You have the Honda switch? Yes. It hooks here.
Lights hook up to switch.
Do u have a test light?

Duhh... Green and white.
Usually the covered one is positive. But, It should match up to the OEM switch.
