TRX4M RC Headlight
Compatible with Traxxas® TRX4M®
Have you been wanting to upgrade your factory ESC in your TRX4M® but hesitated because you don't know how to keep the body's built-in LED lighting* working? Maybe this is the answer!

Using this light controller will reactivate your lights and give you the following:
Brake Lights
Reverse Lights
Running Lights (front lights will be on at a reduced intensity as well as the taillights)
Automatic Hazard Lights (these activate when the brakes have been on for more than about 15 seconds)
Manual Headlights (these require a two-position channel to operate)
When you use a standard receiver and ESC (note that the ESC needs to be set up with "crawler reverse") this controller plugs between the ESC and receiver so that it can read the throttle signal, it then outputs a signal that will operate the LEDs on your TRX4M® so that you have brake and reverse lights and headlights that turn on when it gets dark. The headlights operate from a two-position channel, not from a dedicated light sensor like the first version of this part.
If you notice that the reverse lights turn on when you drive forward, cut the white wire loop (insulate the ends afterward). If you prefer operating without the automatic hazard lights, cut the orange wire loop (insulate the ends afterward).
Switched Headlight Control
The headlights operate from a two-position channel.
Position 1: Headlights off
Position 2: Headlights on
