Ok, I just got one of those pilot 4 switch remote control switches for my car got it all hooked up, and wired at least what I thought was right. No, guess not! I have it all set up and I am not using relays because it said only over 150 watts would require another relay so I went non relay, hooked up the power and ground, hooked up the wires to my interior lighting and exterior that I wanted controled by the switch, get everything put back together, hit the button on the remote I hear the click of the relay in the switch but none of my light turn on at all. Anyone have any ideas as to why this would be?

the pilot thing i have for my lights (the remote one on my keys to control the lights in the car) is a grounded switch, meaning that My relays have to have constant power and in order to turn them on, I press the button and the remote closes the ground side of the switch. Anyway, simple answer, it's a remotely switched ground leg. and will not work if you run power to it....hope that helps.
Everything LOUDER than everything else!!
ok, hopefully sometime today I will scan a pic of the directions and maybe someone could explain them to me, as for right now I really need to get some sleep, been a long weekend.
