Switched live - lights problem
Just been checking my wiring and have come across a bit of an issue...
With my headlamp switch off, the ign switch etc all behaves as you would expect. When the headlight switch is flicked to the side or headlight
position, the switched live side of the ign switch become live irrespective of the position of the ign switch. There are 3 wires to/from the headlamp
switch. Brown (perm live), red (sidelamps) and blue (to change over relay) so I can't see where it can be backfeeding. Anyone got any ideas
pls?
Thanks

I'd love to be able to provide a diagram but it's a STM/Aries loom that just comes with a layout picture rather than a wiring diagram.
I'm using Delta switches and the only place that I have tapped into the permanent live is for the Vapor dash. Everything else is taken off the
(what should be) ign live side.
Flicking the headlight switch makes the red (sidelights) and blue (changeover relay) live but I cannot see where power is getting from here to
everything else on the switched live side. I have even stripped all of the harness tape off the loom from the scuttle backwards and I can't work
out what's going on.
