How to make a fuse block for your car key on power
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video I add in a extra fuse block for my truck to have extra circuits for powering different components. I wire it to only be powered when the key is turned on. I bought all of these parts from amazon. Thanks for watching and comment with any questions you have. Thanks!

Excellent installation! One of the only KZread fuse block installation videos that is done right. Many others who have no fuse protection between the battery and the relay. Many who have grossly undersized the wiring to the relay. Many who have used standard 40 Amp, non-continuous duty relays feeding to a 120 Amp fuse block. Many with no loom wire protection or grommets through panels. This installation will provide you with years of trouble free performance.

Thanks man I appreciate that! I tried to do as good as possible and I agree, other videos I had watched were definitely missing a couple things that would keep their install trouble free
Exactly what I was looking for. From your triggered fuse block you can feed a lot of accessoires without having each acc triggered by its own relay, of course their switches need to have enough amps to feed the acc. I want to rewire a Ford 1973 and need a triggered fuse block for head-tail-fog lights, turn signals, power windows, radio, heater, electrical fan and so. I guess this will with such triggered fuse box
Very nice, simple and clear video. Shows exactly what I am attempting to do in my vehicle. Thank you!!

Excellent video thanks - I really needed this to add an auxiliary fuse box to my 1958 classic Morris Minor car to run additional equipment.. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you for sharing! I like seeing the mega fuse on the #4 feed, and the fire wall grommet. inspirational. '66 Jeep truck total re-wire

Great video. Just what I needed. I also hate to piggy back off used fuses. The fuse piggy back wires move around too much and I don't trust them. Thanks for your video.

Looks awesome! Thanks for the clear direction on wiring it properly! I'll be using this video to install my own break out fuse box!!

Oh My God !!! Finally it makes sense~ You made it so understandable a child could do this. Now I can turn the key and the engine actually start, instead of the head lights/ high beams, stereo system zap co board amp, smart touch screen reverse mirror link, back up camera, dome lights, dash cam, PA with 13 animal sounds and sirens, star light fiber optic head liner, emergency/pulsating to the music light bar, gaming consul, built in FLIR camera interface and strip light laser show, along with the heated seats and defrost, wipers and trunk release all simultaneously coming on full blast. The battery would look like someone was welding girders, burns the eyes and got me in trouble for getting power from a nearby transformer. Thanks Bro!!! For Real you helped me out and from it the universe will be in your favor for sharing your knowledge and brilliant video, illustrating what I'm off to do now. May You and Your Loved Ones be blessed with Health, Happiness and Love for Eternity. Sincerely, Randy Chavez

Sweet, thanks, very helpful. Can you ground the relay to a bolt on the body somewhere, instead of to the battery negative?
@Robs_garage90

You probably could but it’s more ideal to put on the battery
Thank You!!

You should look into adding a link to the parts you used so you can get paid a little. U never know some of these guys are making real $. Been thinking about getting into making videos too
😎👍🏼👍🏼
thanks helpful
Im confused as to how you spliced into the trigger wire, you ran it off the relay in to the fire wall with the big power wire? And then you removed the injector wire from the your circuit breaker block under the dash? And tied it all in? But it wouldn’t make sense because at the end you are still getting 12v on the fuse so it is still hooked up. Help me out because this is exactly what im trying to do as well. Thanks
Very nice video! Good info! How would you do this is you were trying to use this setup on a classic car? Can you do a video on that?

Great video and a perfect project for me. Can you provide links or comment on your source for the distribution block?
@Robs_garage90

The distribution block was just purchased from autozone.
What size relay did you use?
Will the 10A fuse you use blow when you add more accessories to the power block? Or is it just being used as a tap to just trigger the relay with 12V to close the circuit?
@Robs_garage90

The wire being used from the 10 amp fuse in the original fuse panel is just used to trigger the relay only when the ignition is switched on. It’s just a good idea to always fuse a circuit in case of any shorts, but that should be plenty sufficient just for that purpose only.
I bought a stinger isolator. Can it Be used in place of the relay?

Just curious what size gauge wire did you use for the ground?

I can’t remember for sure but it’s probably only like 14 gauge
Can do the same key power system with an auxiliary battery?

Yes would be the same thing. If you use an aux battery you might want to see how you can charge the battery with the charging system as well so that it doesn’t just drain the battery
Did you say 20 percent of 120 is 96?
@Robs_garage90
Жыл бұрын
I probably meant to say 20 percent less since 20 percent of 120 is 24, and 120 minus 24 is 96
