Here's how you would configure the wiring for a center-off SPDT dual feed setup:
You'll note that what the SPDT gives you is flexibility. I personally wanted even more control so I put an illuminated SPST in-line with the feed to the relay. This arrangement gives me an added sense of security (to prevent an inadvertent dead battery) and it also lets me know at a glance that the fogs are on. Here's what an SPDT/SPST tandem configuration looks like:
The SPDT allows you to select the control tap feed (either low-beam or parking lights), and the SPST turns the fogs on/off while giving you an indicator light while they're on. Like I said before, this isn't rocket science but hopefully you found it interesting and useful. I know that it's given me a considerable amount of control over my auxiliary lighting package… Drive safe. |
