    Light switch mod for safety

    I've been in it since early on, I make up about 1/3 of the posts at this point LOL. I don't get the negative comments. I think it is quite simple, if you don't like it, don't do it but why crap on others if they want to do it to their truck? Why does anyone care about how my brake lights...

    Light switch mod for safety

    LOL, partially. In my case, I seem to forget about the lights until I go to use my directional the first time and it doesn't work. Then I turn them on. I'd say that is about 1/3 of the time. The bad part is I didn't have brake lights until I turned them on. I don't want to get rear ended...

    Light switch mod for safety

    Since you asked and made me think about it more, I came up with another version that would retain the BO Driving light in the front. It would also allow the brake lights be shut off for BO driving but would allow the regular brake lights to function when the switch is in the off position. It...

    Light switch mod for safety

    Wow, looks like a military vehicle, complete with well thought out features for use as such.

    Light switch mod for safety

    Don't like it, don't read it. It's really that simple. My steering wheel lock would probably send you over the edge. LOL

    Light switch mod for safety

    To point One, you are correct, it is a military vehicle BUT I'm not in a war or the military. Point Two, Why when I can easily make it safer for my everyday needs? Does that bother you so much to tell us to "go buy a 4WD SUV"?

    Light switch mod for safety

    Yes, that is an easy one, don't do it. I never use BO and I regularly forget to turn on the stop light (no brake lights) until the first time I go to use the directional signal and it doesn't flash, then I remember to turn them on. I personally would prefer not to get rear ended more than I...

    Light switch mod for safety

    Rev 2 The modifications in RED make the brake lights work full time. They also disable the Black Out lights so they can't all be on at the same time. The modification in PURPLE does two things, first it moves the driving lights (tail lights, markers etc) to the STOP Light position of the...

    Light switch mod for safety

    I was basically thinking out loud based on the pictures you posted. I see what you are saying about the turn signals however they are also the hazard light switch and any modern vehicle (last 50+ years) the hazard switch is always live. However the HMMWV I don't believe it is for obvious...

    Light switch mod for safety

    I missed the F connection and was thinking the A was switched power to that side of the switch but now I see it is what feeds the dash light circuit. I corrected the picture. As for back feeding it should be relatively the same as what your suggesting. As long as the directionals and brakes...

    Light switch mod for safety

    Why not make the change in the switch itself? No cutting harness wires and it looks like you could accomplish all of it internally. The brake light mod I like the idea of. The turn signal mod would allow the hazard lights to work with the switch in the off position. With both mods done it...
