So my battery keeps dieing. I have my relays wired permanently on (now that I think about it, thats pointless to have the relays wired like that) and my battery is draining in less than 12 hours. Id assume that just those 2 30A relays are pulling enough current to drain the battery pretty quick.

My question is, where is the easiest place to tap into a ACC wire in the engine bay to have my relays get current from?

I was just looking at wiring diagrams. I guess I could just move both wires behind the ignition relay and be fine, yes?

I USE THE MAIN WIRE FOR THE IGNITION UNDER THE DASH TO POWER THE RELAYS WITH IGN. ON

Yeah, I figure I could use one in the cab of the car, id just rather keep it cleaner and run it from a wire under the hood. Thanks for the input though

I have an LX so i dont have fog lights, I bought a light switch with fog lights and use that switch as a ground to my fan relay, it works great, you just have to remember to turn it on and off
