Here is an Easier one using only 2 relays. But, you need to make 2 of these.

Why don't you just upload the diagram to the downloads section of this site.

It will save the trouble of having to answer so many e-mail messages.

I actually saw this on a car here around where i live and came up with an idea that i was wanting to try. would it be able to be used as a light flasher for an alarm? for instance when i arm the alarm the lights will flash through high beam low beam then parking lights? and would i need to create this for both sides of the car or would it be possible to create just one curciut since i would only be using it in place of parking light flash from alarm?

Will I spent some time perfectong Diagram #2 and it does not work with standard Bosch relays. However it works prefect with Honda relays.

ok but that doesnt really answer my question as to wiether or not it will work through an alarm. does the alarm flash last long enough for it to cycle through the lights. and will it work on the headlights as i described as well?

I don't know if it will work for your application the sequence only lasts about 1 second.

How long is the flash on the alarm?
