Optronics MCL44 Series LED Side Marker Clearance Light Diagram

P2-Rated Lights

Diagram of light spread for P2 rated light

A P2-rated light produces a 45-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 90 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be seen straight on, but it cannot be seen clearly from the side. So this type of light can be used as either a side marker light or a clearance light, but it cannot function as both. If you need both functions, then you must install 2 separate lights on your trailer - one as a front or rear clearance light and one as a side marker light.

GREAT PRODUCT, WORKED GREAT ON THE PROJECT THAT IT WAS APPLIED TO!

These LED lights are an inexpensive way to brighten up your trailer. They have solid construction and bright visible lights.

I still can't beleive how fast I received my lights by you guys using United States Postal Sytem. High quality lights and the leds are much brighter than the regular bulbs. Will be replacing the rear red lights soon and will get them from etrailer.com!
Thanks

Very good lights!I purchased these lights to replace the bulb lights that were on my trailer and the difference is out standing. These lights were easy to install. The performance of these lights are great, their bright and add updated style to my 1997 Interstate Supercoach trailer. I am very pleased with the quality of these lights. I find the pricing to be very good in comparison to other LED lights I was considering to purchase. I am very pleased with my over all purchase.



by:

ordered 2 lights and both broke. Cheap plastic. There is no place for the wire to go except against the trailer frame and when you tighten the cheap plastic falls apart and pulls the screw out. Had to use an epoxy to repair both.

You have to drill a hole for the wires. These lights a called surface mount for a reason.



by:

The cover almost fit perfectly.
Well
built. Held up well to a harsh winter. A surprising find was that it keeps our fifth wheel dust free on the inside as well as the outside.
well worth the expense.

Fit perfectly and easy to install. Works great, Cant tell that its a different part from the OEM



by:

We have upgraded all our trailers to LED. This is the first light we have replaced in 7 years. We use etrailer for all our trailer lighting.



by:

I really do not care for these - they are much dimmer than the lights I replaced. They also require modifications so that the vehicle does not complain about the wiring.



by:

This is a perfect replacement for the globrite 118a/117r clearance light. Same size, same mounting holes, same look. 6 diodes. Easy install. Great service.



by:

Outstanding customer service great quality for the money, just can’t beat these guys



by:

We received the light in a timely manner and it was exactly what we needed.



by:

etrailer is my go to place for trailer parts. They do everything right. This light works great and is just what I was expecting. There was one minor problem. This light was the updated LED version of the 8 year old lights that came on my trailer. The lenses were even interchangeable after 8 years.This version has no room for the wires behind the surface mounted light and require a hole through the trailer body exactly where the wires exit the back of the light. This required hole is in a different place than the old lights and required drilling a new hole in the trailer. No big deal, but having enough room to house the wire in the back of the light would be more user friendly.

I am facing the same issue on my 1983 Aljo Aly. If the backplate was molded to provide enough of a stand-off to accommodate a wire nut it would be perfect! Another option would be a rubber gasket thick enough to accomplish the same thing plus seal the back of the light.



by:

These lights from Optronics are an exact replacement for my enclosed car trailer and were an easy install. The lights are built well, illuminate brightly and priced right.
Very happy with these lights and Etrailer !!!!

Exactly as described, easy install an works exceptionally well.

I brought this as a replacement for a good bride 126R/126Y on my drivers side run board. It's a great replacement. At a distance, you can't tell.

The light pattern is slightly different, but this light was a better deal than replacing 5 other lights. I happy with it

Still great



by:

Excellent - see previous rating



by:

Order was quickly processed and arrived in quality time. Part was as described and with little altering it worked to my expectations. I had to drill a small hole near the center of the light so it would lay flat against the fiberglass on my 40 foot 5th wheel. E-Trailer was the only site that I could find a light of that size to match the TMC GLO BRITE 126Y light on my RV. Only difference was the number and arrangement of diodes. Light replaced had 3 diodes in a line and MCL44AB has 6 arranged in the center of the light. Light works great but design needs to be altered so that wire can be directed towards the center.



by:

Very happy with the gentleman that took care of me and took his time



by:

These led marker lights lined up perfectly for my motor home and are nice and bright. I would recommend not having the lens installed on the body when shipped. Taking apart the light per the video left mars from my screwdriver no matter how careful I was, they are extremely tight.



by:

I bought this a year ago to replace a burnt out running board light from another company that no longer makes them. Still working great.

Its still working great after a year. I may be ordering more to replace the older leds which are starting to fail.

  • How Do I Know Which Wire To Connect To The Black Wire On The MCL44AB
    For a clearance light like the # MCL44AB The black wire on the light would be connected to the running light circuit on your trailer. That said, wire colors are not universal. We would go in with a wire probe like the # PTW2993 to determine function.

  • How to Install New Trailer Lights that Only Have One Wire
    A trailer light that only has 1 wire means that it grounds through its mounting hardware. The single wire is the power wire. The best surface to ground a light to is steel. If steel is not available in the area the light installs you can attach a ring terminal and wire to the grounding stud and attach the other end of the wire to the original ground wire from the old light.

  • Can Single Wire Clearance Light Be installed To Replace 2-Wire Light On Travel Trailer
    If a trailer clearance light like part # MCL44AB1 is used, the one wire is the power wire for the light and the light will be grounded through the mounting hardware. If you want to use the ground wire that you have on your trailer you can install part # MCL44AB. This has a 2-wire install, where one is for the power and the second wire is for the ground.

  • Trailer Lights Do Not Light Up But have Power on All Wires
    The problem you are experiencing sounds like a ground issue and/or short circuit. Ground problems normally show up when there is more draw on a system such as when you have the running lights on and then use another function like a turn signal or brake light but can show up any time. Make sure that the vehicle side and trailer side connectors are clean and free of corrosion inside and out. The main connector grounds should be attached to clean and corrosion free bare metal surfaces. The...

  • Recommended Replacement Lights For A 2014 Gulf Breeze Ultra Lite 22 TRB With Hail Damage
    It doesn't look like we currently offer the correct lens replacements based on the dimensions you provided and the tail light you have looks like the base would be too broken and would allow water in to replace just the lens so you're looking at a complete replacement for these lights. For the tail lights I recommend the Low Profile LED RV Tail Light w/ License Bracket - Driver's Side # RVSTLB61 and Passenger's Side # RVSTLB60.

    Thanks for providing the picture. It looks like your current marker light is around 3 3/4" long and 1 1/2"- 2" wide and has mounting holes 3" apart. While we don't have anything in those exact dimensions, we do have several that are slightly larger so when you replace yours you will be able to completely cover the space the old lights used to be. I am slightly concerned about the width of your current light and how it fits in the groves on the side of your camper. I am going to recommend...

    I spoke with my contact at Optronics to see if the lens for their Rectangular LED Trailer Clearance, Side Marker Light with Reflector # MCL44AB will work for the Glo-Brite 118A amber trailer light. She confirmed that the # A44AB lens will work on the Glo-Brite 118A. The # A44AB lens installs by snapping on to the light housing, and the lens measures 4 inches wide x 1-1/2 inches tall.

  • How to Determine if Replacement Lens A44AB or A44RB Will Fit
    I searched but could not find any specific lights for a 1998 Trails West trailer; that said, it is pretty easy to determine if the correct replacement lenses are the Replacement Lens - Amber # A44AB and Red # A44RB. The easiest way, of course, would be if you happen to know what Optronics series light you have as these are direct replacements for MC44 Series and BA44 Series. That's not something most people know though, so the other thing you can do is take a measurement. Your current...

    To replace the right clearance light on your 2014 Big Sky Montana I recommend going with the Amber Optronics # MCL44AB. This isn't a "direct" replacement as this is a 2 wire design, but we actually have a customer review on this product page saying that it is a perfect replacement for the GloBrite 118A/117R LED light that you referenced. I am not sure why your clearance light has 3 wires because a clearance light just carries 1 function. This means that you just need 2 wires; 1 for the...
