DIRECTIONAL LED - SINGLE COLOR - FLUSH MOUNT - 29 FLASH PATTERNS - 12-24VDC - RED

ECCO ED9040R — Flush-Mount Red Directional LED (Hide-A-LED®, 29 Flash Patterns, 12-24 V DC, SAE Class I)

The ECCO ED9040R is a concealed, high-performance red directional LED designed for installations where visibility is essential but aesthetic bulk must be minimized. As part of ECCO’s Hide-A-LED® series, this unit features a low-profile flush or 1″ hole mount, supports 29 selectable flash patterns, and operates across 12–24 V DC. Its design provides SAE Class I directional performance in a compact 1.3″ × 1.3″ × 1.4″ housing, ideal for integrating into bumpers, body panels, trim, or other surfaces. (Zoro lists it as a flush mount LED directional light, ED9040R)

Key Features & Specifications

Why Use ECCO ED9040R?

• Offers a red directional warning capability in a nearly invisible form factor
• Best for vehicle systems with limited space for external lightheads
• Compatible with both 12 V and 24 V systems — useful for mixed fleet environments
• Supports synchronization to create uniform flashing across multiple modules
• Meets regulatory directional standards (SAE Class I) while staying compact

Common Applications

• Embedded in bumpers, body panels, trim or fascia for directional warning
• Side-edge corner lighting for emergency, tow, or utility vehicles
• Retrofits where larger directional modules are impractical
• Supplemental directional lighting working alongside full-size lightbars

Installation Tips & Best Practices

• Select a flush mounting surface or proper hole cutout.
• Use the supplied gasket or sealant to prevent moisture intrusion.
• Route wiring through grommets or sealed bulkheads to protect against abrasion.
• Fuse the positive, user-supplied line near the battery (recommend 3 A slow-blow per ECCO’s instructions)
• Ensure a solid chassis ground for stable operation.
• Before final mounting, cycle through all 29 flash modes via the pattern-select wire.
• If using multiple ED9040 units, wire synchronization (sync) lines properly to align flashing patterns.
• Periodically inspect lens cleanliness, mount integrity, and wiring for wear.
