Wiring a 25 amp voltage reducer
Need help wiring a voltage reducer for a 36 volt resistor car?? The car does not have any wires. I installed the tail and headlights. Will I need to run a realy with this?? The wiring diagram that came with the reducer doesn't have show a relay in it,just an inline fuse on the positive from the reducer. Thanks

Re: Wiring a 25 amp voltage reducer
Up to you really, I am wiring mine up so that when the key is on it turns the reducer on. You really only need a relay when you are trying to keep a load off a certain circuit.

On edit if your reducer has a control wire, then run it to the key switch. There will be a seperate lead to goto your battries..IE POS to 1st battery, NEG to last battery. |

Re: Wiring a 25 amp voltage reducer
Didn't really understand how you were explaining the wiring to turn on and off the reducer.

Not all reducers have this "trigger"/control wire feature, but an inline toggle switch could be added to provide the same ability . . . |

Re: Wiring a 25 amp voltage reducer
This is a simple 3 wire diagram I made up... Hopefully you can read it.
This drawing doesn't have the trigger/control wire |
