Love your system,but can't keep up,I have a new 18 circuit painless wiring harness, but still need relays right to run fan fuel pump air ride lights ect. Right ? Can I get a copy of this so I can do this? I have most of the things you show! Thank you for whatever you can help with!!

[@jeffreyharmon8345]

Can you help me please to understand better?

[@jeffreyharmon8345]

Thank you so much!!! Your very smart!!!

[@straightouttheshed]

can you expand this setup to include a hazard light switch? and what it would take to make hazards operate at the same time that brakes do? in other words single filament bulbs used in the rear for brake and blink but when hazard lights are activated the brake switch will still illuminate the rear lights solid, not blinking

[@AztecWarrior69_69]

​@@straightouttheshed Adding hazards is easy. Just use a DPDT (On-OFF) switch and a diode will do all of that. Can use that SPDT switch or a OEM on the column Turn Signal Switch. If you are making from scratch like on a dune buggy or ATV or Go Cart, then you can use just 2 relays, 2 DPDT Switches and 3 diodes.. Less wiring.

Thank you so much!!! This worked perfectly although I had to do some major head scratching to get it to work. First of all my car is Positive Ground. Second of all the relay connectors I purchased were not wired as yours are. That took a bit to figure out. The clue was that the stop light switch activated the turn flasher..... oh, that's not right.....Once I realized the issue I just had to follow your chart and de-pin the connectors and re-pin as yours are.

Thank you for this video and the great explanation! I was able to wire turn signals, break lights, hazard lights because of this video. One suggestion I do have is to have a schematic somewhere in the videos so people don't have to (reverse?) engineer the video.

[@ElectroTree01]

@@AztecWarrior69_69 I added onto what was shown in the video using my electrical knowledge(just a dpst switch that switches both side turn signal relays at once)

[@ElectroTree01]

@@AztecWarrior69_69 I put them on a garden tractor. I did not require the ignition to be on in order for the lights to work(brake, hazard, etc). I definitely considered the fact that hazards disable brake lights with this arrangement but for my purposes, I don't think it is that important. If I was putting them on an on-road vehicle, I would have a separate brake and turn signal. I know that there are many alternative options which I could have just as easily tried(using arrangements of diodes, relays, switches, etc) but I wanted to try something a little different and I would probably use one of these arrangements in the future if needed.

Great video series, thank you for your time and energy that you put into these! Quick question for you on the "ire Turn Signals AND Brake Lights into a ONE BULB" video: This is exactly what I need as I have completely removed all factory parts and wiring on a street/strip vehicle but in order to run the car on the street, obviously I need turn signals and brakes. That being said, I AM using std. 1157 dual filament bulbs up front and in the back of the car, so... Do I wire it the same way you demonstrate in the video or is there a tweak required because of the 3 contacts on the 1157's vs. the 2 contacts on the 194's in your demo? Thank you very much!

Very useful, but I really wish you had included a wiring diagram. Or rather two: one of the whole circuit, and one just of the way the relays themselves work. Having both this general - but very clear - description, and the technical diagram you can refer to, would help full comprehension immensely.

[@WiringRescue]

All of this stuff comes straight out of my head, so I don’t have written diagrams for it. At some point I would like to make them, but there are only so many hours in a day.

wiring my 1959 ford f100 and used all your videos but i want to know the truck have on each back side an extra white led round light but now i want to connect them on the reverse light but also my normal light can i use a 5 pin relay will it work when it get power in on both 87 and 87A like when my lights are on and i am reversing and when you take it out of revers will the reverse light go off but they will stay on

[@PredatorOmnivore]

thank you very much for this video. I do not like have the brake light turn off only to flash on the rear. I never understood having a one filament bulb having two functions. In the early 60s I rewired all my VW Bugs and Vans to have a separate rear double sided brake light with a separate amber left or right turn signal. Now I am wiring up a self powered 7 Way trailer light test box. I was really disappointed when I found out that the 7 wires in a 7 Way trailer light circuit used the terrible combined brake and turn signal system. I needed this circuit to duplicate what the towing vehicle "tells" the trailer. I just wish you had included much simpler to follow .

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have a question about pin 87. I thought pin 87 always go to the load. Your video showed pin 30 connects to light bulbs. Is it matter or am I wrong? Thank again

[@WiringRescue]

Solid question, and you are totally right under normal conditions, which you can see in this video I made kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3TOl3l5gcaSgMk. However - this specific video is a special case when we are using them in reverse to get the desired result we need. As long as the proper fuse sizes and wires sizes are in place, it should function just fine. As I’ve said in a whole bunch of my videos, there are many ways to wire a circuit, and this is just one. :) Thanks for watching and posting this question - I wish I had planned better and answered this in the video itself! Ah well, each video I learn a little and try to make the next one incrementally better. Thanks again.

[@jerreplace6850]

This is explained really well. I’m trying to wire a jeep with single bulbs as running lights, turn signals, and hazard. Is this possible? I have it wired similar to this but instead of the brake light it’s the parking lights but it’s not working correctly. Any help is appreciated!

[@thecreekfarm4761]

Enjoy your videos, very informative. I have a small tractor and headlights and fender marker lights turn on with a two wire switch. Ran new wires to fender lights and added a hazard switch, but would like all lights to come on with the switch but also for fender lights to work as hazard lights when I switch them on. I know very little about wiring, just enough to get me in trouble but also get some stuff done, but cannot figure out how get this done. Any Ideas? Possibly use a 5 pin relay? I have no idea what to do. Thanks

[@caylor404]

@WiringRescure I'm using a toggle switch for signals and want to use a single pole push button for hazards. Can I fork off a diode to each signal? Thanks!

[@MW2mastr]

For hazard lights, switch needs a 4th position that sends power out both sides (to the 4 white wires) Therefore activates all 4 relays instead of just two. Or you could wire in a seperate hazard switch with its own power feed, send the power out to a flasher relay then the 4 white wires or pin 86 of all 4 relays

[@urban_zebra]

You seem like someone who would know the answer to my question: i have a 7 way rv plug with turn signals yellow and green wires both hooked up along with a brake wire. When i hit my brakes, both lights light up np, however when i turn left or right, both lights flash. There is no other way to wire these wires unfortunately but can you think up a solution that will fix this issue for me ? I was told a recrifying diode would help but no idea on how to get that done. Thanks in advance.

[@AirBerlin332]

I like your wiring, but one more question: while breaking and signaling a turn, how does the Relais stays on during flashing without a capacitor? In my mind, when the turn signal switches from on to off and back to on, in the off phase of the flash there isn’t power sent to the Relais, isn’t it?

[@mzzzcruella]

Hi, I was wondering if you might know how to wire a side marker NOT to blink when the blinker is on, instead leaving it just on like the running lights? This is on a 07 trailblazer SS

[@kano2444]

i need this for making ditch light DRLs flash with the turn signals. or I guess I could syphon off the power from the headlight ambers

[@snoopyfix2]

Thanks for the video! It was a great help. However, I have an issue with wiring my brake lights. I seemingly have all my wires set up just like you, except I have 2 relays instead of 4. I have my left side together and my right side together. All the blinkers and things work great, but the brake lights, specifically, do not light up. They do not brighten when pushing the brake switch. It's a brake switch like the one in the video (it closes the circuit when pressed). When I have the brake switch wired to power and the switch wired to the relay, and I press the turn signal, the turn signal lights stay on when the brake is pressed, but the rear lights still don't light up??? They only brighten up when I disconnect the brake switch from a power source, and the blinker works as it should. Could this be because of my relays are bad? They are brand new and both do this.

Thank You for the Content ! Some may not quite realize just How Much TIME is needed to generate these Helpful vids …. THANKS ! I have enjoyed your content on 12V circuits. I wired a custom LS-swapped hot rod From SCRATCH front-to-back. I used switches, fusing and relays for virtually Every circuit. Many said that my system is Way over-complicated. I have lived through a catastrophic vehicle fire, so I want to use the ‘ounce of prevention’ mentality. I have an application (custom CamperVan wiring). Could you perhaps do a vid on controlling One circuit, using Three rocker switches, from separate panels in the CamperVan ? Most vids that I see for similar application do not address Fusing, Switch ‘protection’ (i.e. relays ?), which leaves me feeling that all protection has been employed. The rocker switches are 15A capacity, have 5,6, or 7 pins. I presume 2 or 3-way. On-Off-On ? It would Definitely be HELPFUL, and I strongly believe that enough others will agree, increasing Views. Again, Thank You

[@WiringRescue]

Generally factory turn signal switches have functionality built into them that turns off one signal and lights another. That way relays aren’t needed. Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to help with your specific scenario without being there though. My newer continuity video may help you figure it out though. Generally a digital multimeter can identify what all the wires are doing.

Is it applicable for Led Light bulb ?

[@arishoath8725]

Fantastic video!!! Quick question. I'm restoring a '36 Ford that originally used this circuit with single-filament bulbs, but I want to upgrade to a 3-wire (brake, tail, ground) LED unit so the lights are brighter. Does this circuit still apply, or could I run separate brake, turn, and tail circuits as if they were all separate bulbs, and then run them through one of those Curtis 4 to 3 wire adapters like you find on trailer towing kits? Thanks!

[@AztecWarrior69_69]

First off. "'36 Ford that originally used this circuit with single-filament bulbs" No it does not use this circuit. It does not use relays at all. It uses a slider turn signal switch. "and then run them through one of those Curtis 4 to 3 wire adapters like you find on trailer towing kits?" That's not how those kits work. You actually have to have the wiring already there. In order for you to have seperate the circuits at the switch by taking off the brakes and running it separate to the rear (whole new wire) "3-wire (brake, tail, ground) LED unit so the lights are brighter." It is not being 3 wire that makes it brighter, since the power draw is the same. It is the type of bulb, Gauge wire, quality of the switch, that are the determining factors of brightness.

[@MatthewSmith193]

This was a great video and really helped me solved getting the brake light and turn signal portion of rewiring my 1965 Corvair, thanks a bunch! One small request though, is there any way you could include how to have a brake switch connect to a relay to send power through pin 87A on the LR and RR relays? I was able to figure it out on my own but someone may need the heads up before they try to hook up their brake lights through a >5 amp switch.

[@AztecWarrior69_69]

"how to have a brake switch connect to a relay to send power through pin 87A on the LR and RR relays?" Did you not watch the video? That is the way it is in this video. Are you meaning to say that you want use the brake switch to energize a 5th relay and that is what connects brake power to the other two relays? And what's wrong with using a Greater Than (>) 5 Amp Switch?
