power window switch in door

[juzzyvk]

Hi guys, i want to move the electric window switch block from the center console to the front door, the thing i want to know is if there is a way i use smaller gauge wire to run into the front door as i think all the wires will be to thick, also the central locking only locks the front doors but will unlock all four if i lock the backs manually, the car is a vn with vr statesman interior and wiring.

cheers

I suggest you read this thread http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/electrical-wiring-questions/176615-custom-window-switches.html

Only way to do it without problems is to use relays to switch the high current (like the your tin topped fuel pump relay) and have the door switches operating them

Thanks for that does anyone know how many relays I would need and how to put them in

To my thinking, you would require 2x SPDT (changeover) relays per window. Making a total 8 relays (unless anyone can think of a better way?)

each switch has to have this circuit so if it has 4 doors then this circuit x 4
