    Default icecap 660 power cord (how to attach?)

    How in the world do you attach the powercord? There is not any place specifically marked for it that I can see. Anyone have pics of theres so I can go by that?

    I bought a 3 prong 16 guage powercord from lowes. Black, white and green wires.......

    You should have black, white and green wire coming from the harness...

    BINGO! Thanks Steve!

    The last one I had came wired already so I never paid much attention to how it was wired.

    I have a wiring diagram, but did not realize the powercord attached to the wiring harness with the endcaps. The way the are drawn (showing the powercord colors off to one side alone) I was looking for a spot on the ballast specifically for the powercord, lol

    I got it all wired and running last night. Super Bright! Alot of light for my FOWLR.

    Default Harness Headaches

    Hope you soldered all connections, covered with liquid tape.
    Dab silicon around the wire insertion "plug" that goes into the ballast,
    then dab silicon on the plug connector screws.
    There are not many headaches worse that trying to trouble
    shoot a wiring harness; Connections, end-caps, ballast or evil gremlins?
    Good Luck
