Relay help needed....sooner the better...

[roccit_53 at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (C Boyko)]

Okay, so once again I fucked up. Thanks a ton for pointing that out. :) So
I'll rewire the whole damned thing, but I'll probably tap into the rear
defog as I did on Klaus as it's closer to where my new wire to the radio
goes.  And yes, I have the red hooked up to this new source, and the yellow
to regular power. I was wondering about how power would travel through the
relay properly, obviously I misunderstood where to take it off from. I'm in
a crabby mood for this close to Cincy eh? This time of year is just too
busy. Off to work, which will be 110F today no doubt.
