hello all got a question, i have 06 scion xb, i want my leds to flash with my lock/unlock. but the problem is when i drive  my leds flash just like my turn signals are on. i heard if you add another relay to the ign it cancels out the first relay. but i dont want them hooked up to the door locks themselves, i want them hooked up to the flashing lights . i need a diagram of this . i looked on this site but cant find what i need, can anyone help?? thanks !!!!

i think what you're looking for is a relay to interrupt power to your leds when the car is on..? if so..

85-ground
86-ignition wire from vehicle
87a-led power source
30-led

this will open the led circuit when ignition is on.
