Ok so I just wired up my hella black magic lights & nothing works. I think I got everything right into the relay but no power into the switch. Can anyone tell me the proper wiring to go into the relay & anything else I could have wrong. I touched my ground & switch wire together no sparks so i went to check my power & it's directly to the battery & all tight I have another thing wired through a relay & its working fine & connected to all the same things. Power & ground wise. Changed the online fuse going to the power thinking it was fried & nope so im stumped maybe a bad relay? Anyone have an idea?

 

Bump I need some help anyone have any ideas

 

I had the ame issue, found that the switch was bad.

 

Just mounted these on windshield brackets. Same problem with my switch. Stop by the auto parts store and grab one, probably take care of it. Keep us posted

 

I thought it was the switch so tried another & still no power

 

Also does anyone know positive & negative colors there's a black & blue. I think I have them backwards but I don't think this would effects me not getting power to the switch

 

Where are you grabbing the power for the switch? Are you sure it's from a constant and not an ignition only source?

 

Black is usually always the negative lead, unless the opposing color is white.
Black & blue, Black & red, Black & Yellow,Black & purple, (Black is the Negative.)
Black & White, (White is the Negative.)

Have you gone through every contact point?
Double check Your Grounds.
Check Your Wires for internal integrity, ( make sure the wire is whole all the way
from one end to the other.)
Did you use dielectric grease on your contacts?
Make sure none has "bled" over from one contact to another, (thus causing a short.)
Use the K.I.S.S. method for finding the problem.
Check one lead from one end to the other, then move to another lead.

In the end, (when you find the problem) it will be something that will make you go

Hope this helps.

 

I've Subscribed to this Thread as I am curious to find out what the issue turns out to be.

 

Im grabing the power to the switch from my relay im only doing the ground & relay on my switch I don't care if it lights up. & ill go through all of it tomorrow to see what I can find I might just take it all apart & re-run everything as im inspecting i will hopefully figure it out I may try running around the relay & seeing if my relay may be bad. Ill keep this thread posted on what I find
