Hi all, I have 6 off 55w 12v spots that I have mounted to the front of my roof rack . Can anyone help with how to wire them up please...
Thanks in advance
Thanks in advance
He ruined the game what a bellend
disconnect the battery, use 40amp wire to go from your +ve battery terminal to a fuse holder, put a 30amp fuse in the holder, then from the other side of the fuse to one side of the secondary of a standard 40amp car relay, take a second wire off the same pin on the relay go to a switch, then from the switch to one side of the primery of the relay, other primary of relay is connected to earth, the other side of the secondary of the relay goes to the +ve side of your lights which should be connected in parallel, -ve side of lights go to earth, reconnect battery.
if you need a wiring diagram or anything clarified let me know.

tis easy reallyWas going to buy some spot lights but after reading that dont think i will bother
tis easy really
Wrong!! 6 lights should never be wired as 1 full set. Always wire them as pairs. and a 30Amp fuse would prob blow all the time running 330Watts =27.5Amps.
.
if you say so.
330watts @ 12v is 27.5amps but measure your battery voltage, if its 12v its ****ed.
most vehicle lamps, relays ect even cable is rated at 14v and @ 14v, 330watts is 23.5 amps which wont blow a 30 amp fuse.
why would you wire it twice if one 40 amp circuit will handle it?
i do agree if you wanted to upgrade it in the future two circuits would be better but thats not what the op asked.
so shove it up your arse.
I don't think 6 spotlamps would fit. 2 or 3 maybe but not all 6. & Why would you want all 6 lamps tp come on at once. Also as they really need to be wired so they only come on if the highbeam is on. Wouldn't it make more sense to take the Switced live from the Highbeam feed wire??
You also failed to state whether he needed to wire them in series or Parallel??
**** UV's thats what sunroofs and Browning 50.cal LMG's are for
