Adding running lights to a Gator TE missing in my setup

[greenmachinelurkr368]

I've got a quick question for you Gator fans. I own a Gator TE, and while all the other lights seem to be connected and working well, I noticed mine didn't come with running lights for some odd reason. Has anyone else installed these before? What's the best way to get them set up? I'd really appreciate any tips or wiring advice you can share.

That's strange, most Gator TEs should have come with running lights from the factory.
Where did you get yours?
Have you checked if the wiring harness is already there, maybe just tucked away near the headlights or taillights?
I've installed them on older models with damaged wiring or bare-bones builds, and if the harness isn't there, you'll likely need to tap into an existing 12V switched power source and ground.
Make sure to use an inline fuse for safety.
You can grab a decent aftermarket LED strip for running lights and it should be pretty easy to wire up.

Let me set the record straight, the TE operates on 48 V so anything that you get that's designed for 12 V will need a converter otherwise you'll see a white puff of smoke.

Have you checked if your Gator TE has the factory wiring harness prepped for running lights, or would you need to splice into the existing circuits? Any chance the manual mentions it?
