While I appreciate that and I have reviewed it previously, I don't think it will help much as this is more electrical questions. Allow me to elaborate.
I have a 12V flashing voltage for the flashers, and I need to apply that to the LEDs. Simple enough to move the wires, problem is, what if the brake lights are on. Now the brake lights are getting 12V from the brake signal, and a flashing 12V from the turn signal. I will need some type of relay that will bypass the 12V brake signal when the turn signal is issued, but the turn signal isn't a solid voltage to hold a relay (the relay would simply kick in and out with the turn signal). If I just used a relay on the brake signal powered by the turn signal, there would not be 12V to power the LEDs if the brake signal wasn't present.
Here are my thoughts. BS=Brake Signal, TS=Turn Signal
12V and BS into a double pull single throw relay, with a diode on the BS to not backfeed the 12V to the BS when the TS is active. The TS powers the relay, so that it will flash?
Not sure if I'm on the right track with this. I'm no electrical engineer. Maybe I should drop this project, lol.
