You know.....I just disconnected the ground....seems OK so far.

 

So now I need to find a hot wire when the key is on. I don't want the driving lights HOT...even thru a switch .

 

IT would give me more peace of mind to run thru a keyed power line.

 

I read about hooking into the headlight wire...but wouldn't the driving lights put too much extra drain on that circuit?

 

Same thing if I hook into the 10a. "ACC" circuit

I already have a rear end full of running lights on that circuit.

 

SO....can anybody tell me a keyed hot wire that the driving lights won't over amp?

While I've been trying to sort things out I searched the site and found this diagram.

 

Seems simple enough.

 

So....could someone please tell me if I'm right here.......

in the diagram attached....the key switched power goes to terminal #86 and the fused power comes from the battery to the #30 terminal

 

Then run a ground thru the operating switch to terminal #85

 

Does that mean the passing lights will only operate if the key is on?

The diagram you have is fine. The lights will only work when the key is on.

 

The only suggestion I would make is you move your auxiliary light switch to terminal 86 and connect 85 directly to ground. I just prefer that when I turn a switch off it interrupts power to the circuit.
