Blue Bird Strobe wiring

Trying to figure out the strobe light wiring on my 85 Chevy G30 bus. Anybody know what color wires are up in the switch panel? I need to use the strobe light wiring for an LED camp light

Aeroflash for the amber/reds. I dont think the roof top strobe goes through them but you did just help me look at the aeroflash again to find wires/markings that will help with other projects.

The bundle in the brown cloth rapper at the back are the Amber / red and the AC power. I will just have to pin through the last couple wires to find out which one was the old strobe light. The arrow flasher lets me know where the other Amber / red wires are so that I can use them for other LED Camp lights

The strobe is energized at the same time as the flasher. Same common power maybe?

Got it. There were three wires that were hidden inside the compartment where I must have disconnected them and put them out of the way before. Thanks for the help.

Just a quick safety reminder, those strobes have a high voltage capacitor. Handle with Care.

Thank you. It's gone now. Put an LED tractor light on my rack. I don't know how bright 1100 lumens are so I will see tonight. Should light up the area when we're camping
Gotta tidy up those wires.
