dde wiring question...

i've read housecor's instruction on how to wire it to a switch... would it affect anything i was to run the switch on to the main ground wire for the dde's and run it to the switch with another wire already grounded...

it def. makes thing easier in my eyes...

any thoughts...

If I understand your explanation, yes, that should work as well.

The DDE's will light as long as the there's a ground and power - so you can hook them up directly to the battery and get them to light - even with the trigger wire off. Once the relay is brought into the mix, they'll only light when they trigger wire receives power.
