Note: Always connect the switch in accordance
with the diagram above. If leads are reversed,
the switch will operate, but the LED (single
direction LED) will not.
On Quick Connect reed switch models,
connect only the Blue and Brown wires on the
mating cable and cut back the Black wire. Do
not connect switch to a mating cable that has
been previously wired for a three-wire solid
state switch as it will short the MRQ switch.
