i fitted a lights left on buzzer the other day with a similar wiring setup. basicly you need a permanent live for the red and an ignition live for the black wire. so when ignition on no route to earth. i used the fuse on one of the indicator circuits for the switched live. |

Hi Burnsey,
Sidebars. Where from/what make please! I am hoping to eventually fit some, partly to hide an unsightly water tank. (Van is a Holdsworth camper conversion)
'Pretend Alarm' wiring. I've read the above, but could you run through where to wire one of these up in a bit more detail please. So it flashes with ignition off, and goes out when engine runs.
Thanks very much.
PaulG
