Reverse lights

[A.J. Schreder]

What's the best way to wire the reverse lights on the Graziano? Run 12v to the gearbox switch as a relay trigger? Or run power straight from the switch to the reverse lights? Or is the switch intended to be a ground interrupt?

Thanks!

I used the switch as a ground.

Where did you get the pigtail to come off the Graz BU switch.

BTW. IAW infinity, they suggest using the switch as a power break to the backup light via a switched ignition hot line.

Thankfully, the reverse pigtail is not specific to the Graziano. I got mine off eBay for $12:
