@sirstanley09

Found them on ebay. Thanks for stopping by.

Hey there, did you find that other 17 light that you thought would turn the opposite way?

[Rtzee]

Both of these 17's came from ebay. I didn't know they turned in opposite directions until I tested them.

[Rtzee]

I have one more of the early 17's. I will have to check it to see which way it turns. Take care.

[bluemoose2301]

So I guess the one motor on the inside was made to turn that way. Meaning I have to find a motor that turns that way. The quest continues...

rtzee, Thanx for the tip. I'll try the sirenguy you talked about. Thanx again

One wire comes from the motor of the light. There is a place under the skirt to hook a ground wire to the chassis.

[bluemoose2301]

Ok one more.  does your motor have 1 wire or 2 coming out to attach power to?

[Rtzee]

I don't know where you would find a wiring diagram, but one could surface on the internet. Of course, you could email the sirenman via his website and ask him.

There is not a relay switch on any of mine.

Thanks.
