High-Performance 1 Pack 40/30 AMP 12 V DC Waterproof Relay and Harness - Heavy Duty 12 AWG Tinned Copper Wires, 5-PIN SPDT Bosch Style Automotive Relay Review

Bought to connect truck horns and selected for the 12 gauge wire and waterproof relay. Since the relay plugs into the wire harness and the relay pin markings are hidden, I suggest that you label the wire harness colored wires with the relay pin numbers to help with proper wiring. I recommend using the red wire as battery power through the fuse to play pin 30, pin 85 as ground, and pin 86 or 87 as the trip wire from the switch. Download circuit diagrams from the Internet.

The only complaint I have is that there are no instructions included in the packaging, but if there were, it probably wouldn't be written in good enough English to understand. Other than that it works flawlessly, the buy page has a chart showing what goes where and it does the job pretty well, it's just annoying having to go back to the Revain page when trying to hook it up to install. But it seems to work fine, I hear it click to activate when it should, so honestly I can't complain too much…

I got confused looking at the top of the relay (see attached photo) and thought that pin 30 was connected to pin 87a when power was applied to the coil. Not correct. The actual behavior is reversed, documented as follows: coil switch position ------------- energized 30 connected to 87 de-energized 30 connected to 87a I would draw the circuit slightly differently than it is drawn on the relay, but technically correct considering the circuit breaker is drawn in the de-energized position. If I had

The relay assembly looks very well built, it consists of 3 parts: 1. Waterproof housing: This keeps the relay in place and keeps it dry.2. Relay: securely mounted in a waterproof case and can be replaced if necessary.3. Waterproof connector: Cables connect here (on the outside), it has a silicone O-ring to protect against water and fits perfectly into the waterproof case (see 1), and it also has a connector that connects to a relay . Inner part. It appears to be a very well thought out design…

I was upgrading my axles on my Jeep Rubicon and needed something to mimic the original locker identification switch. I hooked this up to a circuit so that when I turn on my lockers the relay closes which tells the jeep that the locker is activated. This fixes the issue with the cabinet light blinking and turns it into a solid light on the dashboard. Very easy to fix with this relay. I mounted the relay near the axle, wrapped the wiring harness around the wires and secured everything to the…

This is a very well built unit that is easy to work with. There are a few things to keep in mind when connecting. First, in a previous review, the user noted that the connector is difficult to connect to the relay. He's right, but the solution is simple. Add a drop of dielectric grease to each connector. Two things happen. You increase the water resistance and your two corks slide easily together. second moment. I had two items that I wanted to power from the relay. So I bought a five-wire…

Time will tell if they are reliable and internals are to specification but my overall impression of this relay is overwhelmingly positive. First, it doesn't seem cheap. It's a good weight and feels extremely heavy, with very thick plastic and a shell so tight that I struggled to fit the two halves together (do this before connecting and/or installing or you'll have to almost certainly take it out again ). I very much doubt that I can separate them. In addition, I was surprised to see that all…
