hey yall,
found out problemo from previous post, where was unable to figure out what had gone wrong with rear lights not workin?
fuse!!!
what shows me up to be a complete basketcase. is the fact i did not know the light switch had to be on,,,to test the fuses for lights???
the other fuses show good or bad, with nothing on,?? but not the light fuses,
so it wasnt main fusable link, as we suspected.
so i learned something,
now question>>
can i wire in the lights in one continuous loop??
eg,,go from one taillight to the next and so on? or do they need to be on separate loops?
same for brakelight?
with one separate for R,/Left blinker.
there are an extra two lights on the rear of the camperervan, at the top..
jolly spiffing look old chaps, but not sure on capability.
your assistance and help, gratefully accepted,
cheers

now assuming youve got enough pressure and flow, either way will work. If you connect them in seies (loo

oh yeah, to explain the pressure and flow
in one case all your globes are connected in a big log of t pieces at the tap. they are all seeing the exact same tap pressure (this is parallel)
in the other case (your loop) one globe comes after another,

note that with this analogy we are pretending that once a sprinkler blocks up it means that no water can flow to the next sprinkler
