I'm trying to find a relay or something similar that will take 1 input and output it to 4 outputs. I want the 4 outputs separated, not just joined together. This is so they can all have different purposes when the relay is off.
Thanks

You will need to provide more information about what it is your trying to do in order to get a good answer.

There's probably an easier way to go about it.
I have an underbody LED kit. tubes. I has a control box to make them light up in different patterns. The power switch on the control box must be pressed for for it to light. I want to have the LEDs to light up when I activate my remote start, and go off when I release the ebrake. I already have a relay wired for that.

The hard part is I would like to be able to control the kit from the control box. The cable from the control has 8 wires. I assume that 4 of those is positive and 4 are negative.

The easiest solution might be to find a way to bypass the switch on the control box.

Thanks for the help.
