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.

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.

Lights are nice, but I wasn’t thrilled that 14 lights worth over $xxx were just thrown in a box loose & shipped!

Sorry to hear about this. Customer Service will contact you.



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.



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:

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:

The order arrived complete. I installed the lights, everything fit perfectly and worked.



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.



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:

Looks just like the original

Working great. Just like the factory only cheaper.

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 !!!!

Yolanda was very patient with my sketchy description of the lights I needed replaced bu was able to find great LED replacements that look and shine brightly. This is the site to start with when needing lighting for your projects,

These are perfect replacements for the clearance lights on our RV trailer. They are bright, match to old footprint perfectly, and look even nicer. Every light works.

My comments still stand. I am happy with the purchases.



by:

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:

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:

Used these to replace the front marker lights on my Lance trailer. They are actually a perfect match for the lights that came on the trailer and were an easy install and much brighter. There is an extra hole in the base plate of the light that I drilled out and ran the wires through instead of their original hole which made it so I didn't have to drill a new hole in the trailer. As always fast shipping with etrailer.



by:

I have been dealing with etrailer for many years now and have always been very satisfied with the products, pricing, service and fast delivery.



by:

The trailer marker lamps worked great. The trailer looks like a Christmas tree when it is running down the road. The best part was being able to run all the lights off one circuit. LEDs rule.



by:

Received product in a timely manner which is great. Product as advertised on the computer and ordering from E-trailer was very simple and fast. The led marker lights fit in with my led taillights. 5 stars to e-trailer



by:

Exactly as ordered and arrived early.



by:

Led trailer lights fit perfect, easy to install and arrived in a couple of days.
Lights are clear and bright and have had no issues since installed.



by:

We changed our 18' flatbed trailer over to LED lights and added these at the front corners so the trailer can be seen at night while turning corners. The LED's inside are amber colored and are pretty bright.



by:

These were replacement lights from the original equipment. They have worked well and are much brighter than the original.

The ones I have installed continue to work as expected and without problems.

  • Replacement for Glo-Brite 118A Trailer Light
    From what I can find the 118A light is an amber light that measures 4 inches long by 1-1/2 inches wide. The light we have with these specs is part # MCL44AB but it's only a 2 wire light. We don't carry Glo-Brite products so I don't have any specific contact numbers to relay for you, but this light should work just fine.

  • Replacement for GloBrige 118A/117R Amber LED Clearance Light on a 2014 Big Sky Montana
    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...

  • Replacement Marker and Clearance Lights For Globrite 118A/117R On a 2004 Haulmark Trailer
    You are going to have to replace your running lights on your 200 Haulmark Trailer as I do not see that there are any replacement lenses available for your Globrite 118A/117R clearance/marker lights. The Optronics Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light w/ Reflex Reflector Red # MC44RB and Amber # MC44AB appear to be the same size as the Globrite lights. These are 4" long X 1-1/2" wide. We do carry the Replacement Bulb # A194B, Red Lens # A44RB and Amber Lens # A44AB for these lights...

  • How Does the Rectangular LED Trailer Clearance Light # MCL44AB Attach to a Trailer
    Yes, to install the Rectangular LED Trailer Clearance Light # MCL44AB you will need to remove the lens, screw the base to where you want it installed, and then put the lens back on. The mounting holes will end up being 3 inches apart on center.

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • Troubleshooting Hazard Lights Not Working on Trailer Towed By RV
    By discovering that the trailer's hazard lights work perfectly when hooked up to your truck, you have at least narrowed down the problem area to the motorhome and know the wiring on the trailer is good. The first thing I recommend doing is taking a circuit tester like # PTW2979 and testing each of the pins on the RV's 7-Way while you have the corresponding light function activated. I have attached a 7-Way wiring diagram to assist. If the brake/turn or running light circuit isn't getting...

    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...

  • Power Getting to Trailer Tail Light with a Good Bulb but the Bulb Does Not Light
    If power is getting all the way to the light and the bulb is good but will not come on that indicates to me that the circuit is not being completed. This would mean the ground is the problem. You can test this pretty easily by attaching the ground from the affected light directly to a negative battery terminal. The light should come on. The lights should be grounded independently and as close to where they are mounted. There should be no corrosion, paint or dirt on the ground location....

  • Replacement LED Marker Lights for a 2009 Timberlodge Camper
    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...

  • Will Optronics Replacement Amber Lens Fit Glo-Brite 118A Amber Trailer Light
    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 Install a Trailer Clearance Light with Different Color Wires
    There are typically only two wires on a clearance light which are for ground and power. There is not a standard wire color to function chart on a trailer for anyone to abide by so it will be best to test them for function with a circuit tester. In order to check this all you need to do is start the vehicle, plug the trailer connector in, and test which of the two wires has power. The light should then specify which wire is for which function but you will again need to test the trailer wiring...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Clearance Lights Not Activating After Install
    First thing to check is to verify that 12 volts are making it to the light assemblies with a circuit tester like part # PTW2993. Next you'll need to make sure the lights are grounding properly. The issue is between either the power or the ground for the lights. Most likely the ground though as that is the more common problem. The part # MCL44AB has a black power wire and a white ground wire. Make sure the connection for both of these is solid. If the ground is an issue you can try running...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring on 2004 Chrysler Pacifica
    The easiest way to test your 4-pole wiring on the trailer side is to directly apply 12V power from a battery like the one in your vehicle or a charged spare if you have one. This can be done easily with a set of jumper cables like # HMBC0825 and two short lengths of wire. Connect the negative cable clamp to one piece of wire and the positive to the other. Apply the negative wire to the trailer connector ground pin and then attach the other end of the cables to the battery terminals. Now...

  • How To Replace a Trailer Clearance Light With One Wire Using a Light With Two Wires
    If you are replacing a trailer marker/clearance light that only has one wire with a trailer marker/clearance light that has two wires like the part # MCL44AB that means the previous light grounded though the mounting hardware and the new light grounds with a single ground wire. Therefore, the ground wire will just need to be run and attached to the trailer frame. That said, I don't know which color has which function on your light so you will just need to test these for yourself if the...

  • Can LED Side Marker Lights # MCL44AB and # MCL44RB be Used on a Class C RV and be Bright Enough

  • Troubleshooting Lighting on Vehicle that Has Power But Still Doesn't Power On
    If you have power to the bulb on your truck but it's not lighting up that would indicate the issue is the ground of the light assembly. I'd start by checking to see how the ground circuit is connected and make sure it's either connected to a clean metal surface that also touches the frame or is ran back to the negative post of the battery. You can also try connecting the light directly to a vehicle battery power and ground to see if it will work that way just to verify that the light is good.

  • How do LED Sidemarker Lights Wire in to Trailer Light Wiring
    When installing a sidemarker light such as this Optronics Trailer Light # MCL44AB you will want to splice into the signal wire for your trailer running lights circuit and then run the ground wire to a clean metal surface. The black wire will be the power wire and the white wire is the ground wire. I attached an FAQ on trailer wiring for you to check out also. I also attached a review video for this product for you to check out. This video shows how the light gets wired and looks when light up.

    If your trailer came with the square Peterson lights then you can use the Submersible LED Trailer Light Kit, # TLL9RK. The Over 80 designation that you see is a federal guideline for trailers that are over 80 inches wide, and extra lighting is required for these trailers.
