    Ok I searched for this and could not find the answer. What I want to do is wire up 5 independent switches for the different lights that are going to go on my truck (Grille, hood, rear, bed, and rock). What I also want to do is have 1 covered switch that can switch them all on at once if the need arises. Now I think I have it figured out but I am not sure.

    Would the load wire running to the relay be the wire to splice into. IE run 5 load wires from the Big Switch to the five individual load wires?

    In my mind this works but to be honest I have pieced this plan together with little knowledge.

    Hitch and wiring, aux back-up light, rear strobe lights, radio and underseat sub.
    That's a neat setup. I might use that for my emergency strobes.
