With all of the talk of headlights I have a question about wiring for
driving lights.
I had installed a set of the JC Whitless driving lights with a 100 watt
bulb. I hooked them up to the original equip power source and after using
them for 2 mins checked the fuse box. It was already very hot so I haven't
used them since.
The alternative would seem to be a relay switched on and off by the light
switch. The power for the lights themselves would then have to be an
alternative source. That all makes lots of sence but how do I wire all of
this. I am not a Tom Walter so I need help. Where would I get a relay for
this and is there a specific type/rating that I would need to use? Do I
run the source directly from the battery or from the front end of the fuse
box? Do I use a fuseable link or is the relay a fuse? See, I dont really
know anything !!
I have never seen an FAQ on this so if I missed it forgive me.
