Harrod Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Morning Just a quick sanity check before I start, will this work?! Basically, two lights per relay, relays triggered from a carling on-on-off switch. Am I right in thinking the carling has two completely seperate circuits, i.e. circuit one is on, two is off, two is on, one is off? Many thanks!

Dave W Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 No, on the Carling Off-On-On switches they are independent circuits but are configures as off - circuit 1 on - circuit 1 and 2 on I use a similar setup to that for my spotlights with a relay connected to each circuit. I can then have the spotlights off, the centre pair on or all four on. I can't have the outer pair on on their own. Because it wasn't complicated enough I used a second off-on-on switch in front of the spotlight switch to control if the spots were always off, on with main beam only or always on, I had to use a couple of diodes to stop the always on position feeding power back into the high beam circuit - which I think is what you are trying to do ?
