[QUOTE="Konstantin, post: 4998253, member: 573257"] Hello, I am going to add a 3rd amp to my install, plus I wanted to add a few fans to keep all of them cool. After reading and searching I noticed that I will need a relay.

Then I'd just ground the relay somewhere close where I have the amps grounded. Will this work? Or how do I wire the relay? I'd like not to run another wire from the battery, but I will if I have to.
