If you're a BMW R1300GS rider looking to upgrade your lighting setup with the COLIGHT D07 Pro Series and control it seamlessly via the HEX EZCAN, this guide is for you. The HEX EZCAN is a popular CAN bus-based system that allows you to power and control accessories like LED lights with ease. By bypassing the D07 Pro Series's relay and connecting it directly to the HEX EZCAN, you can unlock advanced features like programmable light behavior, PWM control, and more. Here's how to do it.
Note: Also work on the BMW R1250GS and R1200GS.
It also can consider COLIGHT D035 series, D07 series, D07 PRO series, D09 series.
What You'll Need:
-
COLIGHT D07 Pro Series Lights
- HEX EZCAN module (installed on your BMW R1300GS)
- Basic wiring tools (wire cutters, strippers, connectors, etc.)
- Electrical tape or heat shrink tubing
Step-by-Step Wiring Guide
1. Bypass the DO7 Pro Series Relay The D07 Pro Series comes with a built-in relay, but since the HEX EZCAN will handle power and control, you'll need to bypass it:
- Open the D07 Pro Series wiring harness and locate the relay.
- Cut the relay out of the circuit (refer to the attached photo for reference).
-
The wires from the D07 Pro lights will be long enough to route them from the front side of the bike all the way to the HEX EZCAN located under the seat.
- Splice the wires together to ensure the lights can be powered directly by the HEX EZCAN. Connect both red wires from the D07 lights together, and do the same for the black and yellow wires.
2. Connect the Lights to HEX EZCAN Outputs
The HEX EZCAN provides multiple outputs for accessories. Here's how to connect the D07 Pro Series:
- Main Lights (White Beam): Connect the red wire from the D07 Pro Series to the Blue circuit on the HEX EZCAN. This will control the primary light output.
- Amber Running Lights: Connect the amber light yellow wires from the D07 Pro to the Yellow circuit on the HEX EZCAN. This will control the amber backlight feature.
3. Secure and Test the Connections
- Use electrical tape or heat shrink tubing to secure all connections and prevent short circuits.
- Double-check that all wires are properly connected and insulated.
4. Program the HEX EZCAN
Once the wiring is complete, use the HEX EZCAN app to program the light behavior:
- Assign the Blue circuit to control the main lights. You can set it to activate with high beams, turn signals, or other triggers.
- Assign the Yellow circuit to control the amber running lights. You can program it to stay on as a daytime running light or activate with speific triggers.
- Enable features like PWM control to adjust light intensity or set the lights to flash when using the horn for added safety.
Why This Setup Works
By connecting the D07 Pro Series directly to the HEX EZCAN, you gain full control over your lighting system. The HEX EZCAN's advanced programming capabilities allow you to customize the lights for different riding scenarios, enhancing both safety and convenience. Plus, bypassing the relay simplifies the wiring process and ensures seamless integration with your BMW R1300GS.
COLIGHT D07 Pro Series is a powerful and versatile lighting solution for touring motorcycles like the BMW R1300GS. When paired with the HEX EZCAN，it becomes even more functional, offering programmable features and easy control.
