Ford Ranger 2012 - Reversing Lamps; Additional External Lamps

4.3.4 Reversing Lamps
The reverse lamps are activated by the reverse
switch on the transmission and passing through
the Central Junction Box where the signal is
sensed. A marginal increase in current (via a relay
or buffered electrical input) is permissible to trigger
a rear-view camera system, or audible device.
4.3.5 Additional External Lamps
When installing auxiliary tail lamps, Ford
recommends that power is provided via the trailer
plug control module and associated circuitry. Refer
to Trailer Tow for additional information.
For all other additional exterior lamps, power must
be taken through an auxiliary fuse box with a
suitable switch and / or relay as required.
WARNING: Directly splicing into the
vehicle wiring in order to install auxiliary
lamps or other electrical devices may
overload the system and impact the
operation of other vehicle systems.
When installing auxiliary driving lights, power can
be provided via a relay energised by the headlamp
feed.
