LED Light Electrical Help Needed

Re-do what you have to this...

 

Out of curiosity where do you guys seek ground for switching power in the cab?

 

I just ran mine back to the fuse block.

 

Do you all think I could use something like this as a place to hook up all of my post ignition hots?

I'm thinking running one line from the fuse tap to this and then tapping everything else off this.

Or would that be too much draw through the tap?

Right now I only have the 50 in lightbar and 4 led pods.

 

Lessons learned. Use a multi meter. Saves hours of time to just trace circuits the old fashioned way.

 

I ran a 60 amp branch circuit to under the console directly from battery (fused at battery) to a fuse block. It is bonded.

 

If it's to continue to add to what you already have I recommend something like this:

The relays need very little current to actuate, also small gauge wire is what you need. (relay pin 86 & 85-back to switches)

 

In your year this should be best:

 

Thank you. Good to know.


Currently I trigger the relay through the ground, but it's alway nice to have options!

 

Any of you folks going to be at the Outdoor Expo West in Flagstaff this weekend?

I will be there Sunday...I owe you all a beer for your help.

 

More stuff for ya OP

 

Thank you Caribe makaira!

So you can use the inside IGN tap for something else later. Get T -Tap and place on IGN wire inside engine room fuse box on connector EB1 slot 3. And so you don't place a "strain" in the 10a IG1 No. 2 circuit, add a relay to actuate with that input.
