Power from the switch goes to the coil 86 and 85 goes to earth.
Then power to 30 and the light to 87 and the other side of the light goes to earth.

Thanks Christian
but that just told me how a relay works not how to connect it for a electrical heathen like me.

This ones not for a motor bike but I'll ask anyway
what do the 30,85,86 & 87 marked on the relay connect to?
just tried 3 different relays on my ute driving lights and they aint working. ......and the bulbs are good.
I reckon Eveready the lighting king will know this one
