Ok I’d appreciate a diagram using a relay. I actually found one installed by an auto-electric place in Portland for my 6v parade fan. They gave me an extra one. It’s just hanging by its fan control wires and wrapped in electrical tape. I’ll take a pic in the morning. I don’t understand the principle of the relay.

How would a relay be used with my fog lights or heater? Is it a built-in fuse? It seems like it increases wiring.

I did buy a bunch of disconnects. These will extend the wires so they are easier to work on and allow me to disconnect and remove a component without having to remove the wires on it, if that makes sense. Each one takes 2 wires with strong opposing male-
female connectors I can pull apart.
