I just had a quick question. If I wanted to wire a relay and a door actuator to my motorcycle so that when I turn on the ignition the actuator comes out, and when the ignition is turned off the actuator closes. Which wiring diagram would I use?

Thanks Nick

Use ignition controlled locking, you will then need a pair of relays to control the actuator.

Here's a clue:-

Look up, just under the site title are sections.

There's one listed as RELAYS.

You're looking for:-

a)Ignition controlled lock and unlock.

b)Adding an actuator (or solenoid or motor etc.)

What type of actuators are you using? Do they have internal limit switches?

what are you trying to accomplish with the actuator?

i dont think we can zero in on your wiring needs without knowing what the final goal is.
