Hey listers -
Forgive the elementary wiring question: I’m running a (single) wire from the
running lights circuit on my switch panel to the base of my mast to wire up a
windex light. Can I wire the negative return from the light to a
negative/ground of one of the other circuits? Or does each circuit need its own
negative/ground?
I ask because I wasn’t able to find the running lights circuit (I think the
wires are glassed in between the headliner and the deck, actually) and there is
an unused wire running from the port hanging locker to the starboard settee
(where the rest of the mast wires are staged). Running duplex along that route
would be exceedingly difficult (it’s crazy tight with other wires already) and
I’d like to avoid it if I can.
