( I recommend you buy the style and design you like for your setup. Make sure that the relays handle at least 40amp and the distribution terminals can handle at least 25amp. You can find specifications for every part in the item description, it will tell you the voltage and amps it can handle. If you’re wiring something over 25amp and the distribution terminal cant handle it, run the wire directly from the 40amp relay. )
You can buy wiring at any automotive store, I recommend 16AWG for basic stuff, 12-10AWG for heavier duty things like upgraded lights or ECU. I use 2AWG and 4AWG battery cable

Fuse Strips: (PLEASE READ)
I recommend upgrading to two 6 terminal fuse strips instead of one 12 terminal fuse strip since they are both equally rated for 100AMP max. This is personal choice however, Either run one long 12 terminal strip with 100AMP max or two 6 terminal strips and two power wires for 200AMP max. My current setup is upgraded to two 6 terminal strips. I’ve included links to both for you guys :)

Great tutorial, especially showing the reworking and oops moments thanks.
Haha thank you !! I’ve included links to everything used in description also !!
When can you make a video on the entire wiring of your car. I've been watching lots of videos on this subject and yours is the best. Thank you
thank you, below i linked a video that shows the basics of how my car is wired.

Thanks, mister Vans
Nice video. Note that a "40" amp relay that only has 14 ga. wires will only pass about 15 amps. Amp capacity does not change over distance. A certain gauge will only handle so much. So a 30/40 amp relay with 14ga can only handle about 15 amps. Look to relays with screw terminals and much higher amperage ratings.
That’s a good point !! It does make lots of sense the relay rating is higher than the wire. Luckily the most the relays see are around 10-15 amps. With the highest rating possible being 20.
I would have liked too see you complete this by wiring in the switches too.
I Believe I talk a little about it in this video!!

I like you explanation❤❤❤
Thank you. this video is quite old but i’m glad it still helps
Nice, helped a lot.
I hope so!! Good luck if you decide to try your hand at electrical, I promise it’s not nearly as hard as it looks!!
nice video keep it up. just subscribed
Thank you! Will do
Thanks for the links bro !

Haha, no problem dude!!! Thanks for subbing!!
Genius work
Ayee thanks my guy!!
How is connection ware from battery to fuse box and key switch thanks
circuit breaker installed between battery and fuse box. key is basically just a switch and when you turn the key it closes the circuit and sends power to starter motor to turn the car over.
Trying to a after market emergency lighting which khans a negitive Monterey switch I need that switch to become a positive switch any ideas
I’m not sure what a Monterey switch is? Do you mind explaining ?
It is a pattern switch for changing patterns on a light bar or flashers
It's a switch that the circuit is closed while being pressed. A horn switch is an example of a momentary switch.
Thank you for your video 😊
Did you tear out all of the old wiring from your car?
yes i did !! wiring is all new except for connectors i reused
Love the video bro I'm thinking of stripping all my stock wiring out of my car and do a custom harness and push button start. My cars a burnout car us aussie fellas love em I might hit you up for some help and info
Awesome haha!! Yeah do so, I’ll help you out where I can haha !!
Can u show how to use a relay for emergency lights using a relay to make a negitive to positive
The relay simply allows you to not be forced to use bulky switches. The should have modules that flip power and create pulses to use with regular lights that will make them “emergency” lights
I have an 06 Silverado 3500 wrecker I’m looking to cut everything from behind the cab and create an easy to check panel from behind the drivers seat to the lights I have new led lights bar light on top around 4 lights in the toolbox compartments running lights and turn signals and they are also in my bar light plus I have around 6 flood lights everything is going on a jerr-dan self loader and help you can give me would be great thank you for your time
Anytime, just shoot me a DM on Instagram !!
This is a good video ...but maybe I missed the most important part. How do you wire this up
That part is a bit more complicated. I do have a video talking about it somewhat that I’ve linked below. Basically everything I needed to power I made a little harness for with power and ground. I also spent a good amount of time studying the wiring diagrams from the factory service manual.
th-cam.com/video/mzw0uaPBmMg/w-d-xo.html
How do I wire the switches to turn on fuel pump and so on? I'm at the point where you show the panel done. Now switches?
You supply power to the switch panel by connecting a wire to the main fuse strip and running it to the switches. The switches power the relays, so when you hit a switch it powers the relay and then the power goes to the fuel pump. Rewatch the last part and I explain how the power flows. I’m making a playlist now with all my wiring videos, give that a watch and you’ll have a better understanding. Also you can dm me on Instagram and I can send more pictures and help!!
What's the size of your relays and why do you have 2 relays for your fans?
the relays are 40a. i have dual electric fans so it’s good practice to have a relay for each fan. i’ve seen people run one relay for two fans and it usually results in the relay burning up
Where are you getting the strips form
Amazon ! Links are in description
In a later Video you talk about using one 80 amp relay to power the ecu instead of 2 smaller relays. I’m looking to wire up my s13 sr into a 95 s14 and didn’t even consider this. Do you think the
ECU will draw more amperage than a standard fuse can handle? How do you still use the ignition switch to power the fuse block? See what every pin does, feed it power and see when it comes out? Thank you
it’s getting multiple power sources and the ecu has its own mini fuse strip. So basically the 80amp relay feeds a separate fuse strip, from there each ecu wire has a dedicated fuse. The ecu relay also gets power directly from the battery and is protected with a circuit breaker.
As for the ignition barrel where the key is. I just used a multi-meter to find out what wire gets power when I full turn the key. It’s basically just used as a switch now the provide power to the starter solenoid which cranks the car. I can pull the key out while driving and nothing will happen. It’s sole purpose is to crank the starter. The ecu, fuel, and everything in the car is controlled via the switch panel !
@@kriswyche I see
1 R/W ignition signal 1
2 R/Y ignition signal 2
8 R/G ignition signal 3
9 R/L ignition signal 4
13 B ignition signal ground
34 O start signal
35 G/O park neutral signal*
36 Ignition signal 12v switched
38 B/W ecu power
39 B ECU ground
46 ECU Backup Power
47 ECU Power
48 ECU ground
For a 62/63 ECU. I have an E5 but I believe it’s similar.
Do I really have to wire all of these? I’m counting 13 wires just to power the ECU? Why do we need 5 ignition signals? Why 2 and a backup I’d understand 1 power 1 backup. Can you clear this up? And if you have an E5 ecu show me what wires you needed/ran to the ECU from the dash end?
34 O start signal
@@kriswyche does a switch on the panel give power to the whole panel? Or is that also from the key? Are you using the 8 gang panel? If so, that’s crazy bang for buck at 30 and change
@@hectordelgado3258 it’s really complicated tbh, I’d have to find where I wrote stuff down and get back to you. I have a 62 ecu and I believe one or two wires are different. BTW, I did lots of wiring tracing, most of the wires split into more within the harness, so it’s like you power one wire and it splits into 4 different pins. I currently only have 3 wires that are getting powered if I recall for the ecu
What? I can't hear you!!
that fuse block does not look like a distribution one. Be careful hooking power up to that bolt.
I made sure it was, check out my recent videos. Car is driving and running good!
Thanks, volume real low.
Thank you! This was back when I filmed on my iPhone :(
you need a material list. and you need better explanation.
I just updated the description and linked everything I used and more :)
let me know what I can explain more in detail.
