Hi I'm new here and I'm glad i came across this site.
I am making a DRL bypass for my car to wire up new headlights. My issue is my headlights are putting out a 0-9V peak square wave. So my solution involves smoothing out the voltage and using it to turn on a relay which will draw power directly from the 12V car battery.
The circuit works great with a sine wave, but when i switch the source to square wave it does not work. and after the inductor there is no voltage.
the output from the factory wire is:
0-9V peak square wave with 35% duty cycle
Purposed circuit as follows, if I can get the image posted.
Thanks,
