Amazing! Thank you for showing me how to accomplish this. I could have purchased a DPDT relay as well had I known it was the better/safer choice but I just don't know the wiring. I've been beating my head on this for weeks. Sorry for the delay in response, I was in the hospital for 3 weeks after a 12 hour surgery that should have only been 2-3 hours. I'm still recovering. If you have a better way you can show me with a DPDT relay I'm open to seeing that and purchasing from y'all. Again, thank you!
You can use this method but make sure you fuse it in case one of the relays fails. I actually had this issue on a different control unit that uses three relays. The middle relay failed to open and shorted out the whole circuit board. If you want relays you can buy at the store use the method above. Or buy a DPDT relay so if it fails it won't short.
Can you try and explain your question better? If you wire it like I explain it shouldn't ever create a short. Of course this is also why you fuse the connection.
@@hotrod-machines so I want to add 2 switches in 2 different locations. I need to wire the motor in a way that if one person pressed a1 switch up and the other person presses the switch down that this won’t creat a short. In other words they cancel out. Kind of the same way power window do when the master switch on the driver side is pressed up and the passenger presses down on the same motor the motor just stops.
Pins 85 and 86 in this diagram are the trigger wires and do not need to be very heavy. The other pins are the ones that carry current to your motor. Your fuses should match the expected draw of your motors. If the max draw on your motors is 15 Amps than you should fuse for that. The relays can still be 40 amp.
You'll need to give me a better explanation of what you want to do. But off the top of my head if you use two 5 pin relays you can wire them similar to a 3-way switch you would use in your house.
thanks!

How do you add another monetary switch that when they are placed in opposite directions it won’t creat a short

If I buy 4 spdt relays 24V 40A for two motors how powerful have to be fuse and which wires have to be the thickest in this diagram. Thanks

can you make video two push buttons on and off with car 5 pin relay
