This just helped me a lot cause I was stuck trying to figure out how to make my rgb work with my taillights. Saved me the biggest headache ever.
Ok from Lite bright to nuclear Fusion...no no where good.
Few Christmas Rum and cokes in., maybe just a question or two.
Think we just have to watch it again once or 200 times again.
Loved it keep them coming, we're slowly a lot really...slowly but really,.
I am almost 70 years old and have been working on cars most of my life. I've done some crazy things with the wiring of a car, like jumping the fuel pump relay to get a F150 to my garage where I could repair it properly. I've rigged up a circut to control glow plugs on a diesel and many other things.
But YOU are far ahead of me. I am amazed how younger people can jump into the wiring and come up with so many applicatiions for the use of relays. Thanks for the video, not only can people learn from this, but they can also be amazed and know we have young people who KNOW what they are doing.
I followed it easy, but having 15 years of custom car A/V and alarms to reinforce my understanding definitely didn't hurt. But nonetheless, as always great video, I've always been a lighting junky since way before the industry caught on and started cranking out the incredible products you guys use today, so i very much appreciate what goes into designing, wiring, and building these projects. Much respect to you guys, keep the awesome content coming, literally can't get enough of it!
Awesome to know what these simple relays can be used for, thank you for sharing this knowledge
Thousand thumbs up for your effort in making this video. Thank you for making it simple
I only had to watch it 3 times while I was trying it out as you went. I couldn’t pause fast enough. When I finally got to the end and you corrected 85 to 87 cleared everything up lol. That is a lot of info to take in. I’m sure it’s not easy to convey that much information to people in a time limited video. It was a lot of info but not too much and it did help a lot. Thank you for your time and expertise 👍
Great instructions, would be nice to have the electrical diagram as well.
The relay has the diagram on the side..
These are readily available everywhere.
I think he means the diagram on how to wire. For instance you can also use these fuses to put two power sources to one light. In other words wiring in reverse
This really really helped me out. Thanks for that!!!!!
I do similar with my 12v mods,
Love this content, this stuff keeps me coming back to this channel,
Yes ...actually it's honest caring advice ..... its rare to find someone like that anymore...... keep it up
I’m starting a massive wiring project and looking at everything I can find to brush up on simple stuff that I know as well as learn about new tech that I have no experience with. This was just suggested to me this morning by RUclips.
You clearly know your stuff. I’ll be browsing through your channel to see what else you have going on.
Been working on cars, DIY on most anything for decades. I have never added a relay and needed some explaining. Your teaching is great and now the mystery of relays is mostly gone! Thanks for the help!
I think it was really good the way you explained it and actually answer a lot of questions I had thanks bro
I subbed because I’ve often salvaged relays from everything to windmills and automobiles
I actually followed and kept up with you on this just for a change lol 😂. And as always very helpful video. Thank you for your time.
Yes, please keep them coming. I've learned a lot from your videos. Thank you
Been doing this stuff for YEARS!!! (simple)
Definitely good stuff! I’ve been trying to figure out he to wire my Baja Designs LP series lights that have high and low beams through the factory upfitter riches in my Raptor. I was concerned that both the high beam and ow beam switch could get activated and fry the light circuit board, but you’ve explained relays well enough to lead me in the right direction. Lost me a bit with the diodes, but great info overall! Thanks!
Love how you explain everything. Thank you
I kept up with most of it, and will review this video more closely when I really need to comprehend the content. I would be very happy if you kept doing these.
Thanks for the info on hooking up relays - very informative
Thanks for the help... just the simple stuff. I followed the rationale but would never replicate it. Great that you included all levels.
Thanks for the insight I’ve re-wired my late father’s boat which had copper wire throughout with not a single relay. I replaced the generator with an 353 amp high output alternator from a 2k Silverado. Voltage light is a little tricky because the exciter wire has less than 12 volts when the engine is not running which activates the light when engine starts the voltage is greater than 12 volts and this turns off the light, however I removed and replaced the warning light but I will use a relay with my output voltage from the alternator to pin 86 pin 87a I will hook the light to and nothing on pin 87 ignition power to pin 30 so when I turn my key on power will energize the light when output voltage energizes the relay power will switch to 87 turning off the warning light. You helped me figure out. 👍🏾👍🏾 two thumbs up!!
I will be watching this again because you definitely lost me, but kept me entertained. Making me rethink how I have some stuff wired at the moment
Good stuff my man!! I had a very small understanding of how relays worked. This was really helpful. Great content as always. I may use that final setup on my car for the DRLs and the rgb goodies.
You’re doing an excellent job explaining I’m starting to grab onto what you’re talking about. I have about 50 years experience but I have not messed with relays in a while not since I was four years old and installing radios and communication and police cars. my dad was the head engineer for all the police car installations learned how to build wire harness. learn how to solder wires at three years old. thank you for doing a video without any music in the back around.
Hell yeah, keep these videos detailed. That was awesome thank you.
Helped me tremendously, thanks!
YES 👍. THIS HAS HELPED ME TREMENDOUSLY. GOOD JOB TEACHING ME HOW RELAYS WORK. I'M NO LONGER SCARED OF WORKING WITH THEM. GOD BLESS YOU.
Dude this vid is the best on youtube about relays . have blown fuel relay but my amazon bought connector has blu red gr/w and grey. harness has gr/w, grey, blk/w stripe and org with no number indicators on it . your vid just showed me hoe to hook it up properly after three weeks of researching and hours of vids watched your frickin amazingly descriptive and basic talking on explanations Very well done. if you had more thumbs up i would be clicking every single one. simply flawless tutoring bro . ty. im subscribing for sure.
I thought it was very informative I had to pause it a couple times and even back it up a little bit but that was only how you wired it again cause I'm trying to put a delay on my head unit in my car but yeah I think you should bring the crazy the crazier the better and if anybody gets stuck or can't figure it out they can just watch the video over and over until they figure it out thanks for the video hope to see more like it. It was a big help
Great information! I can use this with my profile prism vehicle specific angel eyes for my E46 M3. As always, perfect content and easy to understand! Thanks for your hard work bro!
Excellent content! Thanks for your time.
Really appreciate your work, thank you
Yes , this did help a lot. I appreciate the information. I'll put it to use.
Thanks
I’m lost but getting it slowly 🤣👍🏻great video
The best and the simplest explanation !! Thanks mate ❤
Although you keek saying 85A for 87A I am following you quite well because your explanation throw this Video is remarkable I have learnt a lot.
I kind of followed you (5 am).
Would love diagrams though, but you explain this very well and I can pause and rewind.
Love the killswitch method!
Thumbs up and subscribed.
Thanks for the upload 👍😊
Your videos are going to help me a lot trying to realize my project for mums Audi TT. Even it sounds very basic, the more I think into it, the more I get confused how to get the wireing right.
DRL that turns off when turnsignal is on. Simple switchback so far.
Additional the DRL should go dimm via a PWM when the headlights turned on.
And of course the basic auto on/off.
Thank you. Very useful info! I never knew how the relays work!
Awesome man, I hope it goes to good use 👍
it`s really really well explained! thanks a lot i was looking for something like that to add the heat on my seat
Great work!. Saludos desde Argentina. Awesome work!
That was awesome and helped me out a ton!
Thank you man. I have been trying to figure how to add a relay to my cooling fan as well as the fog light switch Big help thanks for explaining it clearly.
Happy to hear it dude 👊
love the content. Keep it coming. i enjoy relays i tell my guys you can do anything with relays.
This video was amazing my friend. Good job
Yes thank you so much. Had two watch twice to really get it down but this furthered my knowledge and understanding of these principals two fold.
Hopefully the one from today is a bit easier to follow 👍
Awesome. I'd love to learn more
You explained it well..awesome tech
Yep helped out 100%
Just had to watch a few times!
Liked the info, but my needs were met in the first minute. Again learning beyond need is always good even though I will backup into my comfort zone. Thanks, ed
Great vid - many thanks!
good job my friend clear and easy to understand thanks a lot more power to you and God bless
Very good info thanks love relays
Thanks for the knowledge.
While that was a little high tech in wiring, I got the gist of what you where talking about, and it might come in handy as I remodel/improve on my work trailer, Thank you for a short detailed lesson on Relays.
Thanks for this video, it help me more to complet my work.👍
Far u just made my day and gave me solution to my idea... your gangsta
Much help. Thank you.
You can use these so many ways and highly recommend the Bosch relay guide book for more uses of the 5 pin relays. 85&86 is a coil to control a normally closed contact between 87a and 30and normally open between 30 and 87.
true, i 've used them as high power "pseudo diodes", etc
Correct ,2 working together can lift and return car windows,a cheap fix if the controller is unobtainable or too expensive.
Love the video man! Stuff like this is good to have out there. Helps others learn! Keep it up 👌👌
Iokay on the 12 volt battery to turn on ATV it has a relay that is connected to two red wires and ground wire I connected the terminals wrong I was jumping it from another battery to the ATV battery and now it can't turn it on but the fuse has a little glass fuse didn't burn out so I want to know if it would be the starter or the relay that got burned out most likely it would be the relay right
You made my brain hurt but I did pick up some ideas that I will play around with. I bought up a bunch of stuff from Radio Shack before they went out of business where I live and now I can rig up some things. Thanks for posting. I am going to subscribe because I want of add some crazy stuff to my vehicles.
great presentation.
Excellent video thanks 😊 👍 😀
your very clear, keep them coming
I have so many questions for you i knew most of the basics before my stroke but now i struggle to remember the simple things i injoyed your video keep up the good work i look forward to more videos i like that you stay on topic and the video did not have a car ride involved it amazes me how long some of these guys talk about the video topic compared to how long there video is about the same topic lol and i do have some questions if you are interested we can trade emails thanks again
Thanks man that was awesome
I understand everything you were saying as I wired spotlights before and it was a pain with just one relay :) I have the UK ford Capri mk1 with quad 5 3/4 inch headlights I'm looking for projectors with angel eyes with a bit of magic. Loving your videos .. john
You're doing fine, man. Keep it up, anywhere you can.
This was great stuff
Good stuff man. Thanks.
I followed it fine! I love it!! Very Helpful info and its gonna be sick on my car! I'll probably start on it all Tomorrow night after the car show I'm going to. The 85a stuff was funny too! lol!
Haha, super happy to see this all deployed on your Charger dude 🙌
Well presented! Cheers from OZ
Good clip thanks for your time, my house is12v the possibilitys are almost endless with different configurations of components, lights, water pumps, actuators, fans, motions detectors, light sensors
Yes, awesome video.
finally found the good stuff .
And about your current video, yessss it helped a lot. Thanks.
I was wondering if you could do something like this the other day. Thanks so much
Happy to help!
Nice stuff...not too complicated at all...actually used this for my fuel pump...nice kill switch...thanks
Neat Video, super cool ideas! I think we found a fourth way. In our video we just shared "Creating &Testing Relay Circuit" . I was sweating this video as it instantly popped up in my feed, but glad to see I didn't copy you by accident at all.
I sure needed this video. Thanks. Use like to know where to plug in the relay or where to place the diodes
Thanks for the info 👍🏼
Thank you, Chris!
i actually felt a headache coming... 🤣🤣🤣 but good job 👏
Thanks man been thinking about sequencing relays for a while. I already use relays for the coils on my motorcycle to give me a better spark.
How did you use the relays to get better spark? Very curious 🤔
🤣 bro to be honest I've been searching the net for this set up for the longest time but I'm glad I've found it yes it sounds complicated it might be but at the same time when I thought of what I wanted to be I know you're the only person who I believe would be able to solve this riddle ,so I rummage through the videos until I found it,but u make great contents don't ever stop,for future videos Maybe a diagram would help a lot of us,but thankyou for the information,stay bless 🔥
Good video, thanks
Clear, Thank you!
Bro your awesome!!!! 3 words that I can only process after I just watched this video!!!! ready to execute my project.
thank you. if project is success. I will be back and there will be a place in my heart for you. lol that's where I put all the people that I consider awesome!!! that's you. thank you for this video its awesome!!! lol good times!!!!
Yes, yes , and yes I was able to follow along, only had to watch once, yes I understood it was clear and concise, and yes it helped me I am implementing it on my custom motorcycle wiring now
Wow! I totally needed to learn this and you made ut so clear. Insta-subbed!! 😊
Relays are great when you want to turn on something when something else is powered on. Not just for automotive uses either. I have a DIY solar setup that powers all of my garden lights. The current draw is very high and would burn out most relays supplied on most Home Automation controlled relays. So instead of running the lighting through the HA relay, I let the HA relay trigger automotive relay that can handle the lighting current.
Yes, they definitely have other uses outside of automotive purposes. However, when using them elsewhere beware the current ratings of the relays. Automotive gear tends to have optimistically high current ratings based on that high current is only going to be flowing for a relatively short amount of time and is not a continuous duty rating.
Great info!
Gj, Chris. Keep them coming.
🙏
smart man thanks you helped me alot.
Nice Job!!!
Yes thanks I believe u just made that way easier and well explained thank u g
What a damn nice demonstration. Action speaks louder than words is what i felt here. I always wandered what are these so many pins/ prongs on a relay is used and how it's used and what these different numbers on a relay meant. The numbers still not very clear but i understand the concept. 👌👌👌👏👏👏
I had a pair of relays wired up to control the auxiliary incandescent fog and driving lights in my Courier pickup. The circuit was designed to work either automatically (high beams or low beams) or manually (straight on or off). This was before computerized controls; nowadays, it is best to have a relay with diode protection across the coil; you don't want counter emf damaging delicate electronic parts.
Also, when adding non-factory wiring, use of standard connectors and connector pins is a good idea. If your car needs any kind of repair, the shop will be reluctant to reconnect non-standard wiring they had to disconnect in order to fix your car.
