So in our van build i have made and installed an electric drop down bed powered by a 12V 60 rpm 100W worm motor , which turns a shaft.
this is controlled by a 12V 15A 3 Pin Up Down On/ Momentary Toggle Switch , with a 12v Reversing Solenoid.
Now this setup works perfectly manually , but i want to make it so that when the bed is at its highest point that the power to the motor will be automatically stopped even if the toggle switch is still pressed in the upwards position, same goes for when the bed is at its lowest position and the switch is pressed downwards.
So what do i need is it reed switches connected to a relay or relays ? or what way would be my best way to get this sorted the way i want.
TLDR i want my bed to auto stop at its end points just like and electric roller door would.
