Hey guys,

trying to fit up my light bar and it turns out my 70amp relay is sticking. Binned it.

the light bar came with a 5 pin relay. What do i do with the 87a centre pin? can i leave it blank or do i need to deal with it?

cheers

You don't need to connect anything to the 87a terminal.

Just leave it blank, connect the light bar to the 87 terminal only.

cheers Yendor, that is what i figured but no power so i think i have another problem. Back out with a torch. Cant wait to build the extension to my shed so i can get the GQ inside to work on.

The other connections at the relay should be

Terminal 30 connected to battery supply via a fuse.
Terminal 86 connected to earth.
Terminal 85 connected to your switch (other side of switch to power) or high beam feed, (depending on how you plan on having it come on).

Hope this helps.

85 and 86 pins doesnt matter which is earth or switch
87a is connected to power when switch is off btw
