I'm glad I ran across your video. I tried watching other videos and reading how-tos. None of them made sense to me as they weren't explaining how the relay works. They were only showing how to test with whatever relay they had on hand. It didn't help at all. After your video, I can test my relays in seconds and now that's I know how they work I'll never forget this how.
Ive been wrenching for 10yrs and been avoiding electrical testing. Time to take it head on as I'm doing lots of repairs as a side job for extra income. Once i master my diagnosis skills my price is going up!
Some one said, why he talks so much. If you really want to learn something. Then listen to the whole thing. Anyway I loved the video. Now I know how to check relays. Thank you so much for your time.
Relays and solenoids are considered high current switches a lot of people are unaware of this. Yes the control side 85/86 is switched by the computer most times in an automotive application. Great video and I love that meter.
Good basic information on how a relay works. Thanks for showing the Kaweets multimeter, it's the first time I'm seeing it. Look forward to more of your videos.
This actually sense to me now. I still have questions and some confusion as to why a relay works for a short period then stops. However I now can begin going back through my system
I didn't have a 12-volt battery so I used a 12v battery tender for power. It performed both tests perfectly without worrying about damaging the relays.
Great video. I was looking into buying a new multimeter and this new one with chargeable battery and the auto feature looks amazing and only being 40 something dollars on Amazon is a great buy. Thank you. I'm buying one now.
I had a little understanding of relays, when I tried to add fog/driving lights on my '72 Toyota Corolla & a little background in electronics. However, I never completely understood what the numbers stood for & exactly which terminals did what, even though I successfully wired the lights. Now, as an old guy, you helped really understand. Thanks!!!
I'm in the exact same situation. Took electronic classes in HS and learned more in the army. Being in my late 50s, I am finally a pro with relays. Lol.
Diagnostic question maybe answered from this video. I had clicking lights in the interior and windshield wipers. They drained my battery. I am going to try this now! Thanks for the great video. Easy to understand
This was really cool - I would love to see more about this. Specifically how you walk through a real problem when it's not some major component like a relay or a fuse. I'm dealing with a fuel pump that's not working. Motorcycle sat for 8 years with fuel in the tank so I knew I needed to replace it. Since I was already in the tank, I replaced everything previously in the tank....the fuel pump, pressure regulator, fuel filter, float sending unit, all fuel hoses, wiring harness. Now the problem is when I turn on the ignition, the pump still doesn't sound. I added 2 gal of gas and still nothing. I even made a long hook so I could manually change the float sending unit and the level on the fuel gauge didn't change. SO I'm thinking it's not getting any power to the pump. Fuses were fine - I checked the continuity and they're great. Changed both relays cuz they're old and cheap....still nothing. NOW I'm going to have to test the voltage at the relay and walk it forward but I don't know exactly how to do that. I'm also thinking I should check the plug on the outside of the tank that delivers power inside the tank. However I tried doing that but I'm honestly not sure if what I'm seeing is what it should be. It's confusing when you've never done this stuff.
Thanks. You explained the 87a which the other videos didn't make as clear. I ordered a repair manual. I hope the wiring diagrams are helpful. Getting prepped so when my starter doesn't turn over next time I can see if bypassing the relay will work and start to narrow down my problem.
Sir, YOU make this video easy to watch. your teaching mannerisms are most helpful. thank you for breaking it down to my level. great stuff. I subbed based on this video.
Excellent Video, great explanation of Relay functions. Love the test board and your Stainless Table to write on . Great Camera angle also 🙏God Bless You.
My only quibble is that it's not a resistor between 85 and 86, it's a coil that, when energized, creates the magnetic field to pull the relay switch to close the 87 and 30 contacts.
This was a great video. Thank you. I’m wondering…can you then reverse and remove a component from this? If it’s a 5 prong feeding a faulty antitheft system preventing a vehicle from starting, can we eliminate the system and put a four prong to bypass?
Great video my friend. Well put. Maybe some more specific examples as used in the switching process' in the car would really embed the learning. Knowing there is a high and low side is key, but how they interact in the different automotive situations ( indicators, pumps, etc ) exactly wouldbegreat, but maybe that video would be too long! Super video, I'm ordering the crocodile clips!
Question my battery cable end keeps coming loose alternator changed funs fine for a month then bam everything dies battery was 13 when started alternator shows 15 amps im getting so upset paying all these people to fix my car the battery end is not the normal ends that most vars have please help 2011 3.6 chevy Malibu ltz any help please
Can I just use a spare 12 volt mower battery with some alligator clip wires to energize the relay while testing? Do I risk damaging relay? GREAT video and explanation
I'd say most ECU's would use grounds to control the relays, that's how all of the aftermarket ones i've used worked to control the fuel injection for instance because they aren't designed to have high amps passing through them.
This works sometimes: bang on relay. I had a horn relay that would not work. So I disconnected battery. Tugged, poked, whacked and shook relay. Would not come out. Read it had to be replaced with whole relay tray, or cut out. Hooked up battery to call it a night and presto it worked. I guess it was just stuck with a little corrosion. If does it again I'll drill 3 tiny holes in the top and spray silicone spray into relay to possibly fix corrosion issue for long time.
AWESOME VIDEO!👍🏽🇺🇲 AND THE MOST HELPFUL IN EXCELLENT DETAILS! 👌🏽🇲🇽 YOU EVEN BOTHER TO GIVE US ADVICE AND LINKS ABOUT MULTIMETER THANKS A LOT MAN! 🇲🇽🤜🏽💥🤛🏼🇺🇲
Great Video 😊. Im checking a random no start with a single click in a old 96 Toyota Camry. Can a relay switch sometimes work and sometimes not? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Yes, it's called intermittent operation. It could be the start relay, the starter solenoid, damaged wiring, dirty or corroded battery terminals, corroded wiring, or bad ground etc.
I tried to verify my headlight motorcycle relay everything was good until i tried to power it with a 12v parkside battery, when i touched the terminals with the wires it shorted… was the relay bad or did i do something wrong I put a wire to 86 on relay and - on battery and another wire on 85 relay and + battery
What about 87 & 87a "normally open & normally closed" like having an illuminated indicator lamp on when an accessory is in the off position? That's how I understood the difference between 4 and 5 pin relays.
Between 85 & 86 you refer to it as a resistor. It’s actually an electromagnetic coil that pulls or releases the pivoting contact point, right? I’m sure has resistance, but it’s not a resistor in typical electronics terms. Great vid though!
See the answer I gave to @fix135 above. In addition to that, a coil is made of of loops of wire and wire has resistance, so technically it's also a resistor.
Because of the way you explained how to test a 4 pin and5 pin relay, I believe that I will be able to test a few relays on my 1999 GMC Sierra truck. I noticed that you used a 12 volt battery with two short wires plugged into it. Where can I get a battery and the two short wire pieces from? I see that I can get the set of wire leads with the alligator ends attached from amazon.
Helpful but you did not include anything on the last relay type the thin rectangular one. The one I needed that has no numbers marked next to the pins. So I cannot figure out how to check.Any suggestions on what kind of video might have that. What type of relay should I search for? Again helpful but never got to the last one. Shown but not mentioned or discussed so I am clueless on how to fix. If you can please advise. Thank you.
I have this 5-pin relay that operates the electric chute deflector up and down on my Kubota snow blower. It is located under the hood but for some reason I keep getting water in the relay case and shorting the relay and causing parasitic drain on the battery. Any suggestions on how to eliminate the moisture in the relay case? It has me baffled because this is the only relay that has this problem. TIA
If water is getting in terminals 85,86,87, and 30, you can pack that with dielectric grease. If water is getting inside the coil housing, then apply RTV around the seam between the coil housing and relay body.
That's why you should use a continuity test light between 30 & 87 and 30 & 87A. The continuity test light acts as a load to verify the integrity of the circuit.
Hmm. I've got relays that don't have 87. It has 87A, but not 87. I'm figuring out that this relay is on all the time, but when the control side is activated, it turns off. It is a 4 pin relay. The part # is FOOCLE FLS820-012-1B. There are absolutely zero that show up on a google search. The 1A & 1C show up, but not the 1B. Ironically, the others are 5 pin. On the front of the relay, there is a white tag that says: Red 12V DC White Relay control Yellow Pump A Blue Pump B I'm trying to use this relay to control a coil to a plug, for a Plasma spark ignition demonstration. I'm using a 12V DC LED strobe light controller to energize the relay, to simulate breaker points to fire a spark plug. This one is a head scratcher.
Can we not use the no 30 when using it for auxiliary light just to supply only the no. 87? Like I'm connecting the 85 to ignition switch and 86 is in the negative? And let the no 30 and 87a alone.
@@bernardocisneros4402 You can connect 85 to a switch so you can turn on the light 86 you can connect to ground 30 you can connect to B+ battery 87 you can connect to auxiliary light
@@konstantin-big But they don't want to use 30 and 87. Why use a relay if you're not going to use 30 and 87. You're better off using a butt connector and just using the ignition switch. You should always connect 85 to ground and 86 to positive side of control circuit. It will work the other way but it's technically incorrect. The next mechanic will assume 85 is connected to ground because that's what the standard says.
@@bernardocisneros4402 I am a car electrician I have been in the profession since 1974 If you use a relay then you haven't Voltage drop, and you can use a small switch to energize the relay
@@konstantin-big If you've been a car electrician since 1974, then you should know why 85 should be connected to ground and 86 should be the switched terminal. I understand how to use a relay and the why and when to use it. I don't think you understood blacksapphire's question. Using a relay doesn't eliminate voltage drop it only reduces it. You're using a low current circuit to control a higher current circuit. It cuts down on using larger diameter wires but instead of only having one fused circuit, you'll have 2. One for the control side and one for the load side. Not only have I used relays but I've also designed them.
Absolutely appreciate your explanation and hard work. I have a question that no one has been able to answer for me. I have a 20A fuel pump fuse that blows as soon as I hit my push/start button of which obviously doesn't allow me to start my car. I replace the fuse and as long as I don't try to start my car it doesn't blow, giving me the chance to check my plugs that go to my fuel pump module and the actual plug for my fuel pump under my back seat. I have power running to both plugs, continuity is fine and my fuse is still good so where is the fault at in this situation thanks in advance?

Some relays have a resistor across 85 and 86 to mitigate the destroying effects of a back EMF spike. Some relays even use diodes instead of resistors
