    Default Wiring in "auto lights off" module

    Hey everyone, I was given one of those auto headlights off modules from supercheap auto for christmas, and I've finally got the time to install it, only i don't know how.

    Has anyone installed one of these before? The instructions are quite vague.
    If someone could check if this is right:
    Red wire: To positive 12v ignition ( This goes to a White/green wire ACC yeah?)
    Black wire: To -ve ground ( This goes to metal)
    Blue wire: 12pos output to parklight wire (This goes to the parklight wire on the headlamp switch yeah?)
    Green wire: To headlight relay circuit ( This goes to the relay under the bonnet yeah - but which pin?)
    Extra green: a:If relay circuit requires pos12v feed, connect this wire to the red one.
    b:If -ve grounding is required, connect to black wire. (It would go to the black wire yeah, cos VN's have a switchable ground?)

    Also I want to connect a set of aftermarket foglights to this, is this possible?


    Sorry for all the vague questions, but i'm not 100% on this.
    Thanks guys.

    Your in luck, thats my thread seraphic posted i recently done this mod so any questions just ask.
    Just a few things, I needed to extend the wiring to the sensor (just used some speaker wire). Also, unfortunately it doesn't come with a fuse so you can buy your own or do what i did and spliced into a fused ignition wire under the dash. I think it was fuse #10 or #11 i used..
    Its up to you whether you install a switch or not, incase you want to override the system.

    Red: Fused +12v Ignition
    Black: Earth
    Blue: Park lights + (Brown - Headlight Switch)
    Green: Headlight Relay (White/Black - Headlight Switch)
    Extra Green: connect to Black

    You can use it to control fog lights too, run another wire from the blue to the positive side of the coil on the fog lights relay.
