petegardner_901 Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hi all I am intending to scrap the night dimming relay (yellow Lucas relay fixed inside rear wing). Easy enough to join up the same coloured wires but do I just blank off the red feed and the black earth wires or should they be doing something even if there is no relay any more...? Thanks Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The default 'path' through the relay is not-dimmed and it's powering the sidelights that creates a circuit through the relay to the relay's earth connection that flicks things to dimmed. Take the earth off and the relay activation circuit can never complete so the lights never dim. Done this in both my Spitfire and 2.5PI with no issues.
