i bought a 430-008 used off this guy and was wondering how to plug it in - can someone post some pics for me of how there wires are hooked up or what wire harness they have plugged into the unit please -
mine came with (1) 9 wire plug in
 
it also feels really light - i hope i didnt get freaking ripped off - haha that would suck - there is a hole for a 4 wire plug in on the other side - just to let you know
 
most of them have a diagram on the top of how to hook it up, I don't know that model ice cap but I know if you search online for a manual a lot of them show what goes with what.
 
The 430's are really light(about a pound maybe less). You need to get a power cord, just a three pronged one...you can buy them or just splice a computer cord...attach this to the black white and green wires on the 430 wiring harness...plug it in and you're done.
 
jason if you have problems with the wiring go to icecapinc.com and depending on the bulb config depends on what wires you will use. white is common, black is hot and of course green is ground. if you got 2 or 3 piece endcaps those can be a pain to release the terminals. you might have to jumper the endcaps internal. give me a call today and i'll help you over the phone. 321-266-8564
 
awesome guys - thanks alot - i think i got it figured out from there - thats what i needed to know - wow - hahaha it says what to do with the rest of the wires just not the power and stuff. i just didnt want to try something and end up shocking myself.
