rusty959 Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 So no one comments on the opinion of the guy who is near $100k deep in his electrical engineering degree. ok. Also, maybe im misunderstanding what you want to do, but aren't you wanting something that will light up when you hit the brake? Cause all but one of those switches would make you have to hit the brake once to turn it on and then again to turn it off. also, why would he need to add a fuse to the existing headlight wires? sounds kinda pointless.

Rebel4055 Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Update: I'm going to ditch the brake light deal until winter is over because right now we are expected 6-9 inches of snow and ice after this crap passes. So what I did today was buy 2 lights and some wire and will get everything setup then I'll add in the brake switch. The tractor is on a 12v system with brand new stator so everything charges nice Quote Rest In Peace mother.

(ps im not arguing with you just saying why i did what i did.) thanks Quote 2001 dodge ram 2500 quad cab 5.9L V8 my build logs... dodge build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/94914-mpretes-2001-dodge-ram-2500-quad-cab-build-log/ trik build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/94447-trik-build/page__p__1298547__hl__trik__fromsearch__1entry1298547 box building thread- very cool designs (PICS!!!) http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/95713-2d-or-3d-box-pics/page__gopid__1318152entry1318152 i am a mechanic, pm me if you have questions or anything.

Rebel4055 Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Headlights are already on it from stock. I'm adding the brake/tail lights. Quote Rest In Peace mother.
