Sorry about the delay in replying guys, I am currently in school to become an EE :) This also explains my poor spelling and grammar. Anyway, I_am_learning : the "47E" on your diagram i assumed was a 47 ohm resistor. I tried it with a 47 ohm resistor and the circuit didnt work...

The problem seems to be with a latching relay is when the reed switch closes, the relay also latches, causing the green light to illuminate, unless I am wiring it wrong.

Simple switch that "Remembers" state at power up? I've been trying to design a switch that, when a relay (spdt) is energized: -if a reed switch is closed, a 12v green light bulb drawing 2.5A stays lit until the relay is de-energized, regardless if the contacts of the reed switch open/close...
