+ or - headlight switching
there are two different switching methods used to activate the headlights in a motor vehicle. Positive side switching, and negative side switching.
does anyone know what the 05 F150 is????

First off, don't know.
Can't imagine negative side switching as being economical in such a highly-cost-driven manufacturing operation - eliminates the opportunity for a lot of common grounding, perhaps offset by common powering?
If no one else chimes in who actually knows for sure, then pull the connector on the headlight and see if there's any power present with the headlamp switch off.
Or - I missed this question completely?

It really depends on what kind of wig-wags you get really. Theres 2 types of wig-wags: Direct plug, and wired flaser. The direct plug in is better bc is a simple hook-up. The direct wire is cheaper, but more intense bc your actually splicing wires, and hook-ups. If you have a factory remaining warrenty, it will void it. If you got the direct plug-in route its better, and wont void the warrenty. Just make sure you take it off when you take it in for a check-up. But its def cool, are you into strobes? You can go to www.galls.co, www.swps.com, www.sirennet.com. Check thoses places first.
