    So, I have a Prinsu rack coming in the mail and I am going to put a 40" light bar in it, I already have grill/ ditch Led lights and rock lights wired in, but every time I look under the hood it's not very pretty, but it is done "right" at the end of the day. So with this new stuff coming in I thought that while I'm under the hood that I might as well clean everything up. I got good inspiration from this youtube video, with links to pieces and parts for clean up that I am going to use.

    So im not sure if it's a question or more of a double check, but can someone verify that my wiring diagram looks good to go? I made one up just now, the guy in the video doesn't go into detail whether he had 5 prong switches or not, so I just want a double check thanks!

    Everything looked good to me the only thing I can't figure out is the switches appear like they are individually running through fused circuits on the main panel. That's if what I'm interpreting as fuses (double purple dots) are indeed fuses. You could just jumper the power leads together for the switches and run them off a single fuse.

    Everything else looks good. Looked like you are bussing the relay neg's to a common ground, running each accessory ground separate. That's how I have my bussman rtmr panel setup.

    Thanks for the reply
    The switches will be together to a common power and ground, that diagram uploaded very funky you can't tell anything from it

    I had to watch the video 4 times and watch certain parts about 10 times but I think I finally understand. I have some lights wired from a fuse block directly to the switch, and had no idea what the relays were for. I also had to learn what the terminal barrier block was for and how the hell it worked into all this. Awesome video! thanks
