Battery Driven Parklight/Stator Driven Headlight

you're making it complicated,..whats the purpose for making your parklight as battery driven??,..my comment is " not impressive mod" thanks

@ ronnelmarc_21 - maybe his ride is still all stock, and he just wants to use LED for his parklight

@ toyds - the way i see your diagram, it should work
but you could have just used 1 relay (for the stator to headlight)
and just let the wire from the parklight switch as is, since its already battery driven on your diagram

@ronnelmarc_21 : No problem sir,yes EinVer is right i want my parklight to be battery driven so that i can use a LED for the parklight and still my headlight is stator driven.

@EinVer : thanks a lot sir. :)

@Toyds,..
OK thanks too,..If you don't mind I suggest also to put one diode each like 1N4001 parallel to the coils of your relays to avoid "inductive kick",..the diode will discharge the coil if you turn off your relays,..dont touch the wire connected to the coil,..the is "induced voltgae & high energy there" if your turning On & Off your relay..

Your diagram will work for me.

@ronnelmarc_21 : thanks a lot for the suggestion sir,OK I will add diode in each of the relay coil.

more power and ride safe always

bro ronnel

can you explain it more in detail?
im kinda confused on this mod...

which coil are you referring?
ignition coil of sparkplug or the coil inside the relay.

a diagram will help..

thanks bro

bro trax here is the diagram

the diode is in reverse bias if relay is ON,,but will be forward bias if the relay is OFF due to the induced voltage on the coil,..so the diode will discharge the coil, and will serve also as protector to the relay


some mod like this,,sample only
