Indoctrinated member
I am an official member of the board now. I failed my initiation, therefore passing the indoctrination!
I read on the board, posted by by the experts, something along the line of you are not experienced until you blow something up! Let me start by stating electric components are not my strong suite. My professor used to say just learn to work it and the understanding comes later! I'm more if an understanding to learn type! I hooked up my mini bar light to my dc converter, as instructed. It was getting dark and I wanted to test it when it became night. I got in a hurry and I hooked my relay up to the battery, not the converter. Think to self, converter becomes the 12 volt battery for accessories! I turned on the key switch and hit the light switch and a flash of light then was gone! Hopefully is it only a fuse, but I think I got my switches also. Ordered a distribution (fuse) block to properly install the accessories. Since it was only one light my initial thought was to instell the block when more accessories were added. Hooptmac |

Re: Indoctrinated member
Checked switch, relay and light. I fried the light!It was a neat mini bar light.
Can this be repaired? Is it worth tearing apart to see what happened? Thanks. Hooptmac |

Re: Indoctrinated member
Might as well open it up & see. Not like your tearing apart a working unit anyway.

Re: Indoctrinated member
That was my thought also!
Somebody educate me. I have a light harness and I found instruction to hook to a rocker switch that say hook black wire to pin 7. Ok that ground from 85 off the relay. Then it shows hook white wire to pin 2 witch is the 20 A and this comes from the relay #30, correct? Next it says hook blue power out wire to pin 3. Is this relay 86 or can you go to positive on your battery (12volt system). Having a switch to switch a switch confuses me!!! My simple mind can't keep straight witch switch switches witch! |

Re: Indoctrinated member
What is this pin 1, 2, 7? On what plug? I know standard relays dont have pins with those numbers.

Thanks for your help. The light not working has a different harness, and maybe I am hooking it up incorrectly. It only has one wire that goes to pin 2witch has 20A 10A. |
