Electrical Series: How To Test A Relay - 1080p HD

#electrical #multimeter #relaytesting

Tools I have ready for EVERY JOB: (MUST HAVE):
Honorable Mentions:

Anthony @ DIYautotech showing you both methods on how to test a relay. There is the easy click test, and the multimeter test which provides information on if power is getting through from pin 30 to pin 87.
As always, make sure to like, share, and subscribe!

Thank you Anthony! You explained the pin numbers and what they do better than any other video I have watched. Very well done!

[BoffaDeezMrBojangles]

Thank you 🙏🏽 unlike other channels who spend 18:36 testing a relay with a whole lotta talking you get straight to the point I APPRECIATE your channel

Amazing Anthony for helping me because I have a test tomorrow

[raulhernandez]

Thanks dude! Helped me find a faulty relay on my motorcycle!

[AyoBroliic]

Thanks. Short n direct unlike the other 10 kin videos

You are truly in the realm of “Rocket Scientist”. I don’t recall my 3rd grade science demonstration using such amateur language. Apparently “cross the bridge” = closing a N.O. contact.

good day
does power relay sounds simply shaking it
because my iornbox has one.not working for a week.i am checking power relay its sounds
thank you

Came to learn about relays, leaving to go watch the humpty dance video

[joeh]

Stupid question but is pin 86 and 85 common terminals for power and ground or will they be different on different relays 86 power or 85 ground or reverse or different number ?

[aarronharrison]

Can you use a battery charger for this?

[ilirkrasniqi]

I my car relay keep kicking even when I drive, could be the problem of my car stalling when I drive?

[MArk-ynsp]

I enjoy your videos, thank you. Please provide a diagram of this relay. Thanks.

Relay has some connection when horn stop working ?? tell me

[samer]

does the continuity damage your multimeter if ur relay connect to the battery cuz i watch many video said that ohms sitting will damage your multimeter if test something has connected to battery ???

[josephbenassi]

Can a bad relay cause a check engine light to come on??

[shalamshaikh]

Can we put a relay of high voltage in bike than the required 1. Is there any negative point.

[filoIII]

Does it matter which pins your meter leads go to?

[lexsoft]

The relay you show is an SPST (single pole single throw). When diagnosing an SPDT (single pole double throw) that has 5 terminals : 85, 86, 30, 87 are as usual, and 87a for NC (normally close), I guess the steps are quite similar, right ?
When activating an SPDT relay, I expect we will hear the sound going from NC contact to NO contact.
Btw, can we use a Test Light instead of multimeter for inspecting continuity/connectivity on those contact terminals ?

[jeansandmyshirt]

when replacing a relay in engine fuse box, is it necessary to have the negative terminal disconnected from the battery?

[drumdude]

Is it necessary to hook 12V Power to the Relay.... to see if we have continuity?.... wouldn't just touching whichever two prongs...are appropriate.... show a reading on the multimeter for Cont?
