Hey guys i need some help wiring some driving lights for my bullbar...ive got them all installed and im a little confused..someone had told me to tie them into the headlight fuse, does this mean they will come on with the headlights? the lights have their own switch, i dont want them to come on with the headlights...and tips?

 

I would NEVER tie more lights into my headlight system.
Think about it, Pity7700. If you did tie your bullbar lights
into the same fuze as your headlight fuze and it blew
because of the overload it will cause, you would have
NO lights to gets back home with. So DON'T do it!

Insted install a toggle switch under the dash and run
the bullbar lights with its own inline fused system
back to the battery. I don't know how many lights
you have in mind to put on the bullbar but it's a good
idea NOT to put the load of the lights on that toggle
switch either. A relay should be used.

If all this has you confused, GET HELP. Better to get help
than have your truck catch fire, isn't it?

 

i ended up figuring it out. the lights have a 20amp fuse that connects to the battery from a relay, the only thing that needed to be tied into the headlight fuse was just the on/off button. i dont think it even needed to go into the headlight fuse, it just needed some source of power.

Thanks for the help though, i didnt even think about overloading the fuse, ill keep that in mind for future modifications
