Im going to hook this up tommorrow. Just wanted you guys to double check my cicuit. Pin 85 to ground when running wire from RS unit. (-) Pin 86 and 87 to 12 volts constant( wire large enough for the current of the rear defroster ) Pin 30 to 12 volt feed to defroster . I quess I can put a summer, winter switch on the ground when running wire to overide it in the summer. Let me know if this will work alright. This will be going in a 1997 Ford Explorer. Thanks in advance . Brian

Yes its fine if your defroster requires 12v to activate.

Just ensure that you fuse the 12 volt source. posted_image

I think your truck might need to see ground at the blue/orange wire at the switch.

Yes, you are right. I Had not looked at the wire colors when I posted the first time. Thanks for all the help. Brian
