I wish to run a 12v fan in the cabin of my car, only while the engine is running.
I wanted to use the alternator charge wire, connected to a relay, so when it switches off, the relay opens. But my car doesn't have such a wire on the alternator.
I'd like to use the oil sender wire.
This is a...
Hi All,
The headlight (Dip and especially High Beam) on my motorcycle, is know to be able to be greatly improved when converting the wire feed instead of being via the switch, over to a more direct feed via a couple of relays. At the same time instead of the 18 gauge wire via the switch being...
I have an inverter powered by a car battery that I use when 220V power goes off (see block 1 below). I use a battery charger to charge up the battery before I can re-use it (see block 2 below). Id like to connect these devices so that the battery is charged when 220V power is available. (A...
Hey all, thanks for having me.
I'm fitting a GPS tracking system into my van (Renault Trafic 2005, 1.9l Dci) and I'm trying to install the imobilisation feature. Once wired in it will let me remotely disable the fuel pump.
However, I'm struggling to get any information on the wiring of the...
Howdy folks. Complete electrical numpty back again with another basic question with a basic answer that I can't find an answer to elsewhere online.
I am setting up an auxiliary fuse block/relay set up on my motorcycle. I have attached a photo of what my basic fuse block/relay system will be...
Hi all. I decided to sign up to reach out to some experienced folks who may be able to point me in the direction of how to make this work (and more importantly, the right way).
This is going to be a piece of cake for everyone here (but me) I am sure. To keep a long story short, I am setting up...
Can anyone please tell me how to wire 3 8Pin relays together? Those 3 relays are for access control controlling the doors, so when the fire alarm triggered will disenergized those 3 relays and unlock the doors. Thanks
Hi Guys
I'm wiring up an electric roller blind soon, putting on a conventional up/down/centre off retractive switch.
Would like to install a smart relay in parallel but cant seem to find anything out there ?
Ideally something like this (but this is purely on/off control only) with nice easy...
Hi, I am not a qualified electrician and am doing a little DIY project.
I want to automate the lights in my garage. I have lightwave RF in my house (sockets and switches) which are great but the switches only work on dimmer lights.
Iv brought a relay which I was hoping I could use instead of...
Hi - I have just wired a 7 pin towbar using supplied harness kit with by pass relay . (2012 Megane Coupe)
1 issue discovered is my LED indicators on trailer remain permanently lit with dull glow? ( Checked trailer lights with another vehicle & lights are OK )
Otherwise lights works ok including...
Hi all, i´m new on here and really hoping for some good advice. Not getting much response from an owners forum!!
My Seat Altea is fitted with a single horn. There is a number 53 relay fitted to the relay panel and I believe this is for the horn.
I want to fit twin horns in place of the single...
I'd like to add individual footwell lighting and have the lighting come on when each door is opened individually. I've found the wire locations and looking at the wiring diagram, I not certain which way to wire a relay to properly detect when the switch is open to trigger the LED light to come...

Can anyone recommend a wireless relay to trigger an oil boiler. Currently there is a huge buffer tank which is heated by a log fired biomass. The boiler is being replaced with an oil boiler, but the buffer tank is staying, as the tank was installed during a renovation which means the tank would...
Hello there,
I'm in a situation whereby the customer wants a light switch either side of the bed, and one by the door to control the centre room pendant. Unfortunately the type of switches they have across the rest of the house doesn't produce an intermediate switch.
Does anyone know any off...
My 92' Firebird that I just acquired will not start. I bypassed VATS security
with resistors so the security light now shuts off. I replaced my positive
battery lead that was shot and the only thing that happens when I turn the
key is the temp gauge fluttering. The relay only has 0.5 constant...
Hello,
I'm trying to build a 12v circuit where a npn laser sensor activate a pump but I have no idea on how to build it. Its pretty simple but if I hook the laser to the circuit it looks like there's not enough current passing through to power the pump. So I think I would need a relay right...
