UPDATES!!!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKKKKKK

WOOOP THERE ERE IT IS

first off was the fan switch so i can turn it on manually
had to wire in a relay so the switch didnt take 30amps of load... cause the switch was rated at 10amps

had to make a wiring diagram as the relay didnt come with one


saftey first. fused the line before the switch to 5 amp, its only switching a relay


wired the relay up and located it near the servo on the bulkhead riser panel


spliced into the fan live cable, soldered it up and taped back up



put a panel in and a couple of other switch so it didnt look bare


and finally put my oil catch in used a bit of steel and secured it under the battery tray

Looks proper smart that now mate! Coming on well

cool.

if you need any switch labels let me know, i can always bring the works label machine along to fitw

That looks a very smart job. It baffles me how good you are with electrics, its beyond me.

Electrics are easy!

But yes very good work Tom. I do electrical drawings as part of my job and I still struggle sometimes, but i blame that down to me being tired lol
