I’m planning on putting in a switch panel for some future additions to my “service truck” build.
The plan is to add some work lights, a power inverter and a 12 volt compressor (the latter two will be controlled by switched relays hopefully controlled by the same panel)
I want to use a “key-on” source to pull the 12 volts from to power the switches but am not sure where to pull from. I don’t want to wire them to the accessory fuses under the dash as those I believe are constant power if I remember correctly.
Is what I’m imagining possible? And if so does anyone have a diagram for where to hook up. I’d almost prefer it to be a dedicated plug that way I’m not creating gremlins in my factory wiring.
the other option that I was looking into is an aftermarket fuse box somehow doing the same thing, maybe using a 12 volt signal sort of like a relay. Not sure if they make such a thing.
