Hello,
I'm hoping to install a couple accessories on my '02 1150GSA. I'd like them all to be switched such that when I turn off the ignition, power shuts off to them all. From reading a bunch of posts everywhere, I think the answer is to use a relay and a distribution block (aka dual pair block, aka dual row barrier strip (I think)) with two jumpers.
I've attached a schematic of what I'm thinking to do. Can anyone give this an overall sanity check? I also have a few specific questions, as follows:
1) Is grounding to battery okay?
2) Is 15Amp fuse okay?
3) Any concerns with using ÔÇ£topÔÇØ of barrier strip as positive & ÔÇ£bottomÔÇØ as ground?
4) Is using a Quick Connect to switched power okay?
5) Is 18 gauge wire for all connections okay?
