Connecting Multi amps with Remote On - Page 2 -- posted image.

This may sound newbish, probably it is. But how do you wire that thing?

I've looked at the diagram on the webpage that you have posted. But can't imagine how to wire that thing. Do you just run the wire through the holes and loop it around it?

Do you have a piciture of the relay wired?

imagine a socket that this relay plugs into.... imagine this "socket" has 5 wires coming out of it, one for each leg of the aforementioned relay.....this way you can remove and replace defective relays in 2 seconds with no rewiring.....

i'm surprised that you have never come across a standard 30/40 volt automotive relay before... they are possibly the most most common relay used in the world

you may wish to check the link on the left top under Basics that covers relays are their myriad of applications....

So if you were to get the relay you will need to purchase the "socket" inorder to run this relay. yeah i am surprised as well. I've might have seen it in a motor of car but not know its actual name and term of use.

THe BASICS does not help it all.

You metioned about removing or replacing defective relays in 2 seconds with out rewireing.

So if there is a defective relay you just unplug the relay from the socket and insert a new one???

Have any other reference sit about the socket relay ?

At this point I am starting to think that The amp is toast. I hooked it up and used the ignition wire just to remote it on and the amp turns off and on and off and on.
