Flow Series SmartSwitch™ Controller – Install Guide (With Turn Signal Integration)

Flow Series SmartSwitch™ Controller – Install Guide (With Turn Signal Integration)

For DRL / Accent Lighting, Bluetooth Control, & Turn Signal Sync

---

📦 What’s Included

• SmartSwitch™ Controller Module

• Red-labeled outputs (Passenger Side Group)

• Green-labeled outputs (Driver Side Group)

• Pre-labeled turn signal input wires (Red = Passenger, Green = Driver)

• White Parking Light / DRL Mode Input Wire

• Power + Ground leads

---

⚡ Before You Begin

Your SmartSwitch™ is split into two independent output groups:

• Red Side = Passenger Side Outputs

• Green Side = Driver Side Outputs

All lighting products on the same side of the vehicle must connect to the same side of the controller for proper DRL + turn signal operation.

🛠 Step-by-Step Installation

---

Step 1 — Connect Power and Ground

Connect the controller’s Power and Ground wires directly to:

• Battery (recommended)
  OR

• A clean 12V constant power source + chassis ground point

Ground can be connected to the battery or to any solid, rust-free vehicle chassis point.

---

Step 2 — Choose Your Operating Mode

SmartSwitch™ supports two modes:

---

🔋 BATTERY MODE (Always Available)

Lights can turn on/off through the app or remote anytime — even with the car off.
No DRL wire is needed in this mode.

---

💡 DRL MODE (Turns On Only When Vehicle Is On)

To enable DRL Mode:

Tap the WHITE Parking Light Input Wire to either:

• Your vehicle’s parking light wire, OR

• A fuse that has power only when the vehicle is ON

Make sure this wire:

• Has 12V when the parking lights/vehicle are on

• Has 0V when the parking lights are off

This acts as the “DRL ON” trigger.

---

Step 3 — Connect Turn Signal Inputs (Required for Blink Function)

Your controller includes two pre-labeled turn signal input wires:

• RED Turn Signal Input → Passenger Side Turn Signal Hot

• GREEN Turn Signal Input → Driver Side Turn Signal Hot

How to find the turn signal hot wire:

• Turn on the blinker

• Use a test light or multimeter

• Look for the wire that flashes 12V ON → 0V OFF → 12V ON

Tap each controller turn signal input into its correct side.
This enables the SmartSwitch™ to interrupt DRL effects during turn signal use.

---

Step 4 — Connect Your Lighting Outputs

Your controller is divided into two output groups:

• Red Outputs (Passenger Side)

• Green Outputs (Driver Side)

All lighting on the passenger side → Red group

All lighting on the driver side → Green group

This includes DRL boards, halos, strips, badges, demon eyes (if applicable), etc.

---

✔ System Check

Before finalizing the install:

1. Connect power

2. Turn on the vehicle

3. Verify DRL Mode (if enabled)

4. Test left + right turn signals

5. Confirm each side independently blinks

6. Check Bluetooth/app functionality

---

🧰 Troubleshooting

🔸 DRL turns off completely when signaling

This usually means the parking light wire is not a true ON/OFF 12V trigger.
Try tapping a different parking light OR a fuse with ignition power only.

---

🔸 Turn signal doesn’t blink the lighting

• Recheck that the correct side turn signal wire is tapped

• Verify the wire actually blinks 12V

• Make sure products are plugged into the correct side of the controller (red vs. green)

---

🔸 One side stays lit during signaling

This happens if products from both sides were plugged into the same colored output group.
Re-sort: Passenger side → Red, Driver side → Green.
