Hi all,
Newbie here so please be gentle.
I am looking to fit a set of reversing sensors on a car.
In the old days I would just connect a relay into the reversing light wiring to switch the power to the sensors.
Now with CAN and suchlike I understand that this can cause problems.
I am looking for some sort of non invasive sensor that I can use to detect a current in the wire and operate a switch to control the reversing sensors power supply.
I am looking for something cheap and off the shelf if possible but could build a simple circuit if someone can help me with a circuit diagram and not too technical instruction, I can be trusted with a soldering iron.
Thank you in advance
