[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1862707, member: 35543"] The safest method to use a signal wire is to splice into it with a solid state relay, so there is no added load on the factory circuit. But that of course is dependent on the type of circuit, the installers’s skills, and where the splice is added. Personally I don’t recommend splicing into any factory circuits, I’ve seen too many issues caused by electrical modifications. As far as the circuits from the ignition switch, they do not carry a load; nothing should be added to them. Like the majority of switches, they are used to provide a signal, not power any components.
