Thought I'd tackle a seemingly simple task today but failed, so, I'm seeking some advice from all you "sparkies" out there.
I want to install a warning buzzer that tells me I have left my headlights on when the ignition is turned off. (Following a series of mishaps thought it would be a better option). I bought a simple buzzer and was going to connect the earth of the buzzer to the earth side of the drivers door interieor light switch, and a live to the headlight switch...easy!! Didn't pass GO nor did I collect $200 as there is not a dedicated earth on the door switch, they all share a common chassis earth.
So, has anybody esle carried out this mod and if so how did you do it?, I'm guessing a relay may be the answer. Information gratefully received.
