Ground thru a relay??
I recently fully deleted my ignition switch and put in on/off switches where my cigar lighter use to be. I got everything back to working how it should minus the parking brake switch. if I just run the parking brake ground that runs thru the ignition switch to a ground the light will stay on when everything is off. So I need to add a switch to the ground to compensate for the ignition switch now off of the circuit. I thought about how annoying it will get to switch the parking brake light on a manual on/off switch and thought "why couldn't I run a relay right there and power it with one of my switches?" So when I power the relay it completes the ground circuit. I'm not very well versed in electrical so I just want to know wether I'm barkin up the right tree or not. And if I am maybe someone could push me in the right direction as to witch relay will be best
