LED Lighting Module Installation (Fig. 1) (#8038 Kit only):
1. Install the LED lighting
module (A) on the left
chassis floor pan. Secure
with the 2.5x15mm cap
screws (2).
2. Remove the screws from
the receiver box cover and
wire clamp; remove the
cover and clamp (B).
3. Remove the two 3x10mm
countersunk cap screws
from the battery tray (C).
4. Lift up the battery tray and
route the red wire (male
connector) from the LED
lighting module to the
right side of the chassis,
between the two T-Lock
servos, and through the
hole in the receiver box.
Plug the connector into
channel 1 of the receiver
(D). Note: The connector
can be plugged into any
non-telemetry channel on the TQi receiver.
5. Apply an additional bead of silicone grease (Traxxas part #1647, sold
separately) to the wire clamp. The grease will improve sealing. Reinstall the
clamp and screws.
6. Make sure the o-ring is properly seated into the groove in the receiver box so
that the cover will not pinch it or damage it in any way.
7. Install the cover and screws. Inspect the cover to make sure the o-ring seal is
not visible.
8. Reinstall the screws in the battery tray.
9. Connect the black wire (red female connector) from the LED lighting module
to the red wire (male connector) exiting the XL-5 HV electronic speed control.
LED Headlight Installation (Fig. 6)
1. Remove the 2.5x6mm button-head screw from each headlight assembly and
remove the assemblies (E) from the grille (see Assembly Diagram, Fig. 6).
Retain and reuse the plastic headlight mounts and hardware.
2. Install the chrome reflectors (F) (2) onto
the circuit boards of the LED headlight
harnesses (G) (Fig. 2).
Note: The reflectors must be installed
correctly to sit flat against the circuit
boards. Align the keying features (pegs
on the reflectors with holes in the
circuit boards). Also, there is a notch
on the bottom side of the reflectors
for clearance of the wires on the
circuit boards.
3. Install the circuit boards into the
existing plastic headlight mounts (H);
then, install the headlight lens (I) over
the chrome reflectors and onto the
circuit boards (Fig. 3).
Note: Align the keying features (pegs
on the lens with holes in the circuit
boards and headlight mounts).
4. Install complete left and right headlight
assemblies into the front grille and secure with the 2.5x6mm button-head
screws removed during disassembly.
5. Snap the LED side marker lights into the receptacles near each headlight.
LED Tail Light Installation (Fig. 6)
Note: The tail light harness (J) has 5mm LEDs with a red color band near the
connector and has a long and short wire lead.
1. Install the short wire of the harness on the left side (driver side) of the
vehicle body.
2. Snap the tail light LEDs into the tail light receptacles.
Wire Routing (Fig. 7)
When installing the LED light harnesses, note where the installation begins and
ends in the Wiring Diagram (Fig. 7). Install the included zip tie mounts and use
zip ties to secure the wiring to the body in the locations provided. The zip ties
do not need to be tight; allow some slack for wire movement.
