Yep, I got every accessory literally on its own circuit. With all those daisy-chained Add-A-Circuits that had, I was afraid my shotgun was going to jump right out of its rack every time I turned on the XM radio.

I received some request for an easier-to-see larger version of the wiring diagram. Here it is . . .

Re: 12-Circuit "Switched" Fuse Block (Installation w/ pics)

Steve,
Nice write up. I have the same block on the shelf for my soon to be added accessories

I looked at my local West Marine and found the same block on ebay. Since time wsn't an issue I went the ebay route.

I like the fact that you triggered your block througha relay. Will be looking at these when I hit the parts store.

Thanks, Joe.

BTW, the relays are Bosch 12V automotive 40A.

Very nicely done.

I'm just curious, do you have a similar write-up somewhere for putting a new harness in a 40?

No, that wasn't me who did the 40 re-wiring.

Re: 12-Circuit "Switched" Fuse Block (Installation w/ pics)

Very clean Steve!
Question: With that set-up..I'm wondering about the next step of wiring the lights. the Hella lights i have already have relays. Do I need them? If so how are they wired into all this?

Thanks!

Yes, I would still use the supplied relays. Create a separately fused connection between your battery and the lights via the relay(s), and run your interior on/off trigger switch's power from the switched fuse block.

Under the hood:
Battery > fuse > relay > Hella lights. (Amperage of the light fuse depends on lights' wattage.)

Inside the FJ:
Fuse block > 2A fuse > panel-mounted switch > relay.

With this connection, the Hella's can't be accidentally left on if the engine is turned off.
