Step 7. Route the 4-pin diagnostic LED line to the side of the trailer or slider
and secure the line every foot with zip ties. Ensure the Bendix diagnostics
LED Cap part number K075866 is placed over the end of the diagnostic
connector, P4 in Figure 17 when not used with the Maintenance Hand tool.
Connect the trailer to power and watch for the LED to light up briefly to confirm
the SmarTire Trailer-Link ECU is functional. Refer to the blink code table in
Section C for more information.

If the optional trailer warning lamp is not installed, please use the supplied
dielectric grease and fill the trailer lamp output connector (P5 in Figure 17)
with grease to protect it from corrosion. For instructions on how to install the
optional trailer warning lamp, continue to step 9.
Optional Step 9. Using the lamp output
connector (P5 in Figure 17) a trailer lamp may
also be installed at the nose of the trailer to
provide trailer TPMS alerts regardless if the
tractor is equipped with a SmarTire TPMS
unit. Extend a power line from the connector
to the lamp (standard 12-24V lamp with max
one (1) Amp draw can be used, not provided
by Bendix) and ground the lamp to the trailer
chassis at its mounting point. Place the
provided Trailer Lamp alert sticker underneath
the trailer lamp. See Section C for blink codes.
