Mount a light socket for a small 199 style lamp between the alternator and the circuit. Years ago I had the issue with a boat and had nothing else handy. You're basically just hanging an alternator light in the middle of the circuit. I always meant to fix that correctly, but....never did. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
