SPDT Relay
APPLICATION: REMOTE TRUNK RELEASE
In this application, you use the remote control output from your car
security system to open your trunk without the key. You must have
an existing power-assisted trunk release switch in your vehicle.
You need a constant (unswitched) source of 12 volt power for the
relay’s green wire. You can tap into your fuse panel or run a wire
directly to your positive battery terminal. If you run a wire to your
battery, we recommend installing a 30 amp fuse in line, close to
the battery connection.
If your trunk switch doesn’t work unless the key is on, connect the
red (30) wire together with the green (86) wire to the unswitched 12
volt power source and connect the white (87) wire to the output side
of the trunk release switch.
APPLICATION: POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
To install aftermarket power door locks and activate them from your
security system remote control, you need an “actuator” for each door
and two relays.
You need a constant (unswitched) source of 12 volt power for the
relay’s green and white wires. You can tap into your fuse panel or
run a wire directly to your positive battery terminal. If you run a wire
to your battery, we recommend installing a 30 amp fuse in line, close
to the battery connection.
