Also you need to turn your reducer on and off with the key or ?. If you leave it on it will drain the battery pack and shorten the reducer's and pack's life. Hope this helps. |

Re: Question about Converter/fuse block wiring
Dave is right the neg side is usually run straight to the lights. not sure if this is right but with 12v I usually work backwards (+) from device goes to switch, other side of switch should go to fuse, or fuse block connected to (+) side of power source (-)side can run straight to (-) power then I run a separate (-) if the switch requires it .. for the converter switch I don't know if there might be something in a marine store for a heavy duty anchor switch or maybe a battery selector switch. I dont know what kind of amps an inverter draws, or what kind of headlights you have..

Re: Question about Converter/fuse block wiring
thanks scotty, totally forgot that the key is 36v.. gotten so used to the problem of a 36v key switch not being able to turn on the 12v stuff.

Re: Question about Converter/fuse block wiring
May have bitten off more than I can chew with this one! Thank you so much for the repliles. You guys are great and I am lost without your help! I am such a newbie that i need lots more detail. Ok I like the key thing.
Hear's where I'm at: Coverter 10a 120w wired to 36v+/- on the pack. Converter 12V wired to Blue Sea fuse block (6) Should the fuse block be wired to the key switch? If so how is that done? Do I make my own connection? I am dangerous so the more details the better! "New" Lights: wired to what the fuse block? That means they will be on when the key is on? I want to be able to turn them on and off. Stereo has a power button so run that straight to the fuse block. |

Re: Question about Converter/fuse block wiring
Feel like your stuck hanging here...
Sorry for the curt reply before.. was spray painting in the heat,.. maybe I should wear a mask next time... sounds like you are 83% there you already have the fusebox wired to the converter, the radio is set too. now connect a switch to a spot on the fuse box and connect that to the positive of the lights. connect the radio and lights negative wires to the negative out of the converter.. all that should be left is to find the side of the key that has power when the key is turned on and move the 36 positive feed from of the converter to it. ... I dont know specifics off hand what color, or where to tap that, whats safe, i would start looking at the key wires .. someone with experience on tapping that key feed might be better here. |

Re: Question about Converter/fuse block wiring
I am so sorry that I keep posting this stuff but in all the searchs it does not tell me how to go from the key switch to the fuse block for the converter.
Converter 36v +/- to pack Converter 12v+/- to fuse block Stereo to toggle, in line fuse, to fuse block lights to toggle, in line fuse, to fuse block Converter 36v + to key switch to fuse block? This is where I am lost. |
