i have a bunch of electronics in my car that i need to run, but only once the car is running. below is a pic of the diagram i created and went off of. i thought this was wired correctly, but when i just tried to see if i did i blew the first fuse located between the batt and the relay. any ideas on what i did wrong?? thanks

Looks like everything is wired up right. Are you just running to the remote wires to turn the amps on? Also, what does the 4th wire go to, and what size fuse ae you running?

30 +12v in87 +12v output to components85 and 86 are the trigger and ground.

Your fuse values are going to depend on what you are powering, but most relays won't work for over 30 amps. If all your powering is two amp turn on leads, the 3sixty turn on, and an led I can't see you needing more than 5 amps for a fuse, but what does the 4th wire off your fuse block go to?

so ive tried and tried again to get this to work, but i have realized that its not how the relay is wired......i removed the relay from the equation and wired directly to the 12v source and it keeps blowing fuses.....it must be how the led switches and how they are wired.....i cant think of anything else...when i remove all the wiring for that its find....this wiring has me all confused and pissed off at my car
