Tech Tip: Boss Snowplows Headlight Adapter Connector Change- MSC9993 & MSC8839

Due to the sensitivity of certain OEM headlight control modules, Boss Products has changed the connector plugs on two of its headlight adapter kits. The MSC9993 & MSC8839 headlight adapter kits will now have hard plastic connector ends that simulate the OEM connectors. These new connector ends will also have a locking mechanism which maintains a positive connection.

The reason for this change is the TIPM module on the 2006 & Newer Dodge, and the SPDJB on the 2008 & Newer Ford Super Duty’s, are extremely sensitive to poor connections. If a poor connection is detected, the control module may shut down one or more headlight functions. It is strongly recommended that these NEW headlight adapter kits be used on the vehicles stated above.

NOTE: When connecting and disconnecting these new adapters it is important that the locking mechanism be used properly. If the connectors are forced apart, the plastic lock will break, which may cause a poor connection.
