The Kemimoto UTV turn signal kits, designed for compatibility with Can-Am, Polaris, CFMoto, and Honda vehicles, offer enhanced visibility and safety features. These kits include turn signals, horn functionality, and associated wiring. Installation is described as “plug & play,” though specific troubleshooting steps are outlined for common issues such as indicator light behavior, horn malfunctions, and light failures. The kits utilize a 10A fuse, a JD2012-1Z-12VDC 40A 14V DC relay for the flasher, and a 12V, 0.02-20A flasher. Light mounting requires a 20.3mm diameter hole.
Kit Components and Features
Kemimoto offers UTV turn signal kits designed to improve safety and convenience for off-road vehicles. The kits feature amber turn signals intended for maximum visibility during operation on and off-road. The kits also incorporate horn functionality. A key feature is the described “plug & play” installation process, intended to simplify setup for users. The kits are available with different SKUs, including B0802-00304-BK-KM and B0401-00602BK.
Installation Considerations
While marketed as “plug & play,” the documentation highlights the importance of correct wiring connections. Specifically, the documentation notes that the switch plug-in must correspond correctly (A to A, B to B) as the pin positions on the two switches differ. Incorrect connection can lead to abnormal product function. The documentation also addresses the horn/hazard switch indicator light, noting that it is normal for this light to illuminate after powering on the vehicle. Users who prefer the indicator light to remain off can connect the horn switch to the ACC (Accessory) power source. When connected to ACC, the switch will only illuminate when the vehicle is turned on.
Troubleshooting: Horn and Indicator Light Issues
Several troubleshooting steps are provided for common issues. If the horn/hazard switch indicator light remains illuminated constantly, connecting the positive pole to the ACC power source will disable the backlight. If the indicator light does not illuminate, the first step is to verify the correct switch plug-in correspondence. If the plug-in is correct and the light still does not illuminate, the documentation instructs users to email photos or videos of the issue, along with their order number, to [email protected] for further assistance.
If the horn continues to sound after the vehicle is powered on, the following steps are recommended: First, check the wiring sequence of the A switch, comparing it to a provided diagram. Ensure all wires are securely connected and that the A switch (hazard light switch) is not damaged. Second, verify the connections of the power cable, confirming that the red wire (+ pole) and black wire (-pole) are properly connected.
Troubleshooting: Light Functionality
If a light fails to operate, a two-step troubleshooting process is outlined. First, the light should be powered on separately to test its functionality. If the light does not illuminate during this test, it is likely defective. If the light illuminates during the separate test, the issue likely lies with the wiring or switch connections. In either case, users are instructed to email photos or videos of the issue, along with their order number, to [email protected] for assessment and a solution. Kemimoto states they will assess the issue within 24 hours.
Technical Specifications
The documentation provides several technical specifications for the turn signal kit:
- Fuse: 10A
- Flasher Relay: JD2012-1Z-12VDC, 40A 14V DC
- Flasher: 12V, 0.02-20A
- Light Hole Size: Approximately 20.3mm
- Turn Signal Operation: Blinking, not steady light.
- Wiring Lengths: The documentation does not specify the lengths of the wires.
Self-Cancelling Functionality
The documentation explicitly states that the product does not have a self-cancelling function. The turn signals will not automatically turn off after a turn is initiated and the vehicle proceeds straight.
Horn Switch Illumination
The documentation clarifies that the horn switch indicator light illuminating after powering on the vehicle is normal operation. Users have the option to disable this illumination by connecting the horn switch to the ACC power source.
Dimensions
The documentation provides the distance between the hole positions on both sides of the triangular light fixture, as well as the drilling dimensions, but does not specify the actual measurements.
Support and Contact Information
For troubleshooting assistance or to report issues, users are directed to email photos or videos of the problem, along with their order number, to [email protected]. Kemimoto states that they will assess the issue within 24 hours and provide a solution. The Kemimoto Help Center is also available online.
Conclusion
The Kemimoto UTV turn signal kit offers a means to enhance the safety and visibility of UTVs. Installation is designed to be straightforward, but the documentation emphasizes the importance of correct wiring connections. Troubleshooting guides are provided for common issues related to the horn, indicator lights, and light functionality. Users encountering problems are advised to contact Kemimoto support with detailed information for assistance. The kit utilizes specific components, including a 10A fuse, a JD2012-1Z-12VDC 40A 14V DC relay, and a 12V, 0.02-20A flasher.
