Does anyone know how to turn off a negative wire I guess that's how I would put it while the ignition is turned on.
Right now I have my alarm wired so when i unlock/lock my car and the parking lights are set to a timer triggered by the unlock/lock wires . And I pretty much want the negative wire to the timer disconnected once I turn the ignition on so I'm not driving around with my parking lights on while there is still time on the timer. And then once I turn off the ignition the ground for the timer is grounded again so that it works normal.
Thanks in advance

Use a 5 pin Bosch/tycho cube automotive relay.
Cut NEG wire. One side to 30, other to 87a.
Ground to 85 and ignition to 86.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
