Not sure if yours is the same, but mine automatically selects V1 when the
Blue Wire is OPEN and V2 when the blue wire has +12 V. I hooked mine up to
a DPDT switch with a center off position so I could have ON-OFF-AUTO. The
Blue wire is hooked up to the common terminal of them switch, the Reverse
lights are on one leg and a +12 constant source on the other leg. I really
like being able to flip it on any any time I want while pulling the trailer.
