bongo321 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Hi can anyone tell me how to wire spots when using a boomslang loom kit . I also have a plug n play spotlight kit , can I use both together , can I use the vehicle o/s headlight plug that's made redundant using the Boomslang , Or just wire spots from scratch if so How please .

crwoody Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 You would be alright to use the redundant O/S plug so long as it will only be used to trigger a relay, the relay then feeds the spots from a more substantial supply in the same way that the Boomslang relays do.

bongo321 Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Thanks for that , its a relief . Made my night lol . Yes would be just to get the spots to work on full beam with a switch to isolate as normally done . So if I take the high beam of the reduntant to the relay , power the relay from the battery , relay wired to spots , and earth all . Is that it . Unless you know the relay numbers for each . Think my relay is 4 pin , But see some are 5 , Can I switch the relay if its only 4 pins . Again thanks for letting me know I can use the redundant.

western Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 just wire with a 4 pin relay, so new extra lights come on with main/full beam & extinguish when dip beam is selected, that's how mine are wired, no need to a extra switch or warning light as the main beam blue warning light takes care of that job. have a read of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongo321 Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Hi Its only so i can isolate the spots , so only on with full beam When i want them on .

bongo321 Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) Sorry im a bit of a dunce especially since this cancer rubbish i question myself on everything , before i would just of done it . So please have patience with me , Am i right here , i take a wire from the reduntant hi beam plug , via a override switch then to 85 on the relay and wire the relay direct to battery live/earth and live to spots and ok to earth spots to frame . Relay 86 earth (all) 87 live to spots , 30 live from Batt , 85 from redundent plug hi beam via isolator switch to relay .

western Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 wire as shown in the first diagram of the link. main beam wire is blue/white trace. use that to tigger the relay, which also needs a ignition controlled 12v feed to allow the relay coil to work. my front driving lights relay is earthed to the wing edge, both lights are earthed o the front bumper, haven't had any problems since fitting about 20 years ago.
