Hi guys
I am new to car electrics and am fitting a range of carling switches to the dash on my 96 300 Tdi for spots, driving lights and rear work light. I have read the threads about wiring them in and get most of it. I know that I need to put ignition + feed to the switches and that I can do that by finding white wire at the dash.
I have taken out the cigar lighter and used the main feed for a 12v socket and a USB socket. I still have a spare red wire which powered the light on the cigar lighter. Could I use that and split it for the carling switches or do I need to tap into another (white) ign + wire and split that?
Many thanks in advance
Mike
