Meyer plow wiring woes

I have a meyer stright blade (do not know what kind) and i'm using a pistol grip controller (22690X) as well as the nite saber 2 light setup. The documentation has me very confused and as a result i just fried my controller.

Documentation says i can eliminate the plow light switch if i hook up the orange wire to my plow light harness orange wire, and supply the line with 12V. I did this..hooked up my controller and smoke started pouring out of it. I'm not sure if i hooked this up wrong somehow? Very hesitant to drop $350 on another controller just for it to burn up again. Can anyone speak to how they have theirs wired up?

Um, no. The orange wire from the modules, a 2 into 1 connection, would run inside to the orange wire from the controller, looks like you are using the 6 to 12 adapter. You do not add 12v anywhere. The orange from controller turns the modules on.
