Relays - How to Wire

- Relays are often misunderstood but are very simple in design and easy to use. In this video we give you an overview of how a relay works and why you should use them when installing electronic accessories in your car. Especially if you have a car with an older electrical system that wasn't made to take the load of todays accessories.
this is what i've needed for ages... and it was uploaded 13 years ago! cheers
WOW! This was uploaded in 2009 and it's still helping guys out! Good job on the video. Helps us "novices" that don't know much about wiring. I found this VERY helpful. Thanks!
i shoud of paid more attention in class about electrical, but thank goodness for you tube..helpful ppl like you! thanks for posting
HOLY COW.. THANK YOU. I have had alot of trouble understanding the "WHY" behind using a relay. Most people just say.. "it's safer" and offer no REAL info. GREAT VIDEO. Now I need 4 relays I guess for my AUX lights.
i have to buy 2 dozens of relay on my car! thank you soooo much for this.... i dont have any idea about whats happening on my car until i found your informative video... thanks again.....
this is the tutorial ive been looking for. the current tested have shown the difference. thank you
omg this was simply the best teaching out of any teacher that i have ever been to!
thanks a bunch i totally forgot about this gadaget since electrical school 15 years ago funny how the basics seam to dissapear in life.
good demo on how relays work
That was the best explanation I have seen yet. I understand how and why, and will from now on be sure to use one on all my aftermarket applications.
It took me long enough to figure it out,but it think it protects a circuit like the inginion switch on a car,it goes to a relay to power a starter motor. of course you have to get the right one for how many amps I think.I thought relays were more complicated but it looks like all they are is electromagnetic switches. I could set a horn on the car from the ignition to a relay to power another horn with a toggle switch.thanks for the video
that was so helpful you just saved me lot of dollars
MOSSTV is Awesome!! Thank you for all the helpful videos.
My drift car now has a fancy fan =) No more over heating!
Damn. You make it sound so simple I have to do this
Best relay explaination video
Very helpful and well explained vid, thanks man.
Wow cool thank you so much man I was about to wire my horn without a damn relay I had no idea what it did.. it did not make any sense to me I have a 6 volt old horn but now I'll definitely use a relay thank you so much
Beautiful & neat video
Thank you
Thanks, for an informative video!
Great video! So they are pretty much like a solenoid, right? I've got a 1970 scout which I'm wiring new spot and flood light onto. Original elect. Circuits. Will I need one relay per light?
Helped me so much ! thank you !
very good video!! it helped me alot! thanks
thanks this explained it perfect!
L☺L I've probably learned more on RUclips the past couple years then all the years wasted in elementary and high school. ☺
Gee, I didn't know that the naming of these contact points was standardized. That's a point worth remembering.
thank you !!!
I can answer that for you sir ..the 3rd pin is for the led you wire it separate so when the switch is on you can tell by visual hence LED...a 2 pin is used when you don't need an visual/ led reference.. hope that helped
thank you for the video!
For the coil, does it matter which end is positive and negative? I'm preddy sure it will produce the magnetic field either way but I want to know for sure.
I appreciate the info, wasn't sure why I needed to run a relay opposed to just an inline fuse. This cleared it up. Why do I still need to run an inline fuse? I am assuming its to protect the relay since there usually more expensive and harder to get to. Please confirm for me whether i'm right or not. Thanks
on 87 diagram,how much amp did you use for the fuse?and for the switch 85,is that the same voltage as the 87 would be, with fuse?
lets say the fan is 12 volts..
you've helped me understand the basic need for relays, now, what is the logic behind multiple relays, such as in wiring door actuators?
Very informative thank you
i tryed using this way for wiring off road lights but ones i add the other power from the switch inside the car to the relay, my switch burns dont understand why
so what would you connect to the switch? thats the part im confused on
this cleared my whole confusion on relays. but i do have one question: how do i use a relay to flash the parking lights on my car?
I got a relay not for my horn or lights but for my amplifier because it gets really hot hence I got some computer fans to cool it down. I got a relay and wired it to the remote turn on from my car stereo so when my radio is turned on the fans turn on as well to cool down my amp.
Can you recommend a cheap, 30 amp, 120 volt relay I can control with either 12 or 120 volt?
What is the maximum speed that a relay can osculate? I mean for example if I have a 555 time circuit that drives the relay, how much would the be maximum frequency which I could get out of the relay? Lets say 555 circuit can go up to 200Khz. Regards
I'm sure you wont respond cause this is an old video but can I use a relay rated for 220 volts 30 amps, on a 110 volt lower amp device?
so you need a dedicated 12v+ line to actually power the device correct? the 12v+ ignition or switch lead can be spliced off anything?
I'm would like to know what is the other wire from the fan connected to?
One small issue, I did not see how this protects the cars electronic system.What is wrong with the cars electronic system at the moment as it is currently?
What kind of relay I'm going to put in my electric fan?or can we use relay in to anything or if we like to save power or something?im learning... That's all
can u tell me in better detail LOL how to wire in a retained acc power unit,to power my stereo after the key is off but shuts off the stereo after the drivers door is open?
does the power switch need 12 volt ran to it also???becasue two 12 volt powers confuse me i might be dumb but could u plzs explain LOL
ok never mind .. thanks for your help/video
What was the power source of the fan?
How much continuous current can a relay can handle?
what is the ground wire or swiych??
what is the blue wire from the fan and where is it going to?????
The blue is the ground. I think it going to the power source or coming from.
is the black wire from the fan, power??
I think it is because he has a yellow wire on #87.

U can trust
can u better?no? then fck u
good job mate, really like the video, i bought a new car and the abs relay was removed and it hard to find a relay like it, so what im thinking is to just connect poles with a regualar cable, but i dont know which is which, can u plz help me?
god for bid they lay-able it pos/neg ext , if it is not broke don't try to fix it .

Your voice is on the left ear which is very very annoying to listen to... just make a mono sound recording or keep teh audio on both channels... :|
Thanx for the video though
