ABOUT BOSCH RELAYS

A relay is an electromechanical device that uses a coil (electro) to move switch contacts (mechanical).The coil can be energized with a small amount of power while the switch contacts can be used for any number of applications including switching high power circuits or reversing the polarity of a control signal. A typical 12-volt relay requires a coil current of .150 amps to energize.The relay contacts can switch currents up to 30 amps.The power gain of this relay is as high as 200 to 1, and is one reason relays are often found in high current automotive circuits. In most circuits, a relatively weak signal or trigger is used to make the relay control a higher current or voltage circuit.The output of a trigger actuates the coil, which closes (or opens) the much heavier duty contacts, allowing the desired action to result.The main components of a relay are the coil, the spring, and the contacts.These components determine how the relay is to be rated by the manufacturer and used by the installer. Below is an illustration of the bottom of a relay.

mon on alarm systems) to 85 (or 86), and 12volt CONSTANT to the other pin (86 or 85). Basically, it doesnt matter whether pin 85 or 86 is used for ground or 12 volt if the relay does not have a diode across the coil. Bosch states that 86 should be the 12V connection and 85 should be the ground since newer relays come with an internal diode. By using either of the previous methods, the coil will magnetically actuate, opening contacts 30 and 87A, while closing 30 and 87.This type of relay is known as a single pole, double throw (SPDT). 30 - Terminal 30 is common. One side of whatever is being controlled goes here. 30, 87A - Normally closed (N/C). 30, 87 - Normally open (N/O).

IGNITION KILL CIRCUIT

To prevent car from starting after the alarm has been triggered and until alarm is reset, you can wire a relay to a cars ignition system. NOTE: When doing any ignition kill circuitry, it is recommended (when possible) that connections be made at the terminals or connectors, as opposed to splicing into the wiring.This enables you to wire in series rather than interrupting. (Most vehicle manufacturers have some stipulations concerning alterations in ignition system wiring). Check your cars warranty thoroughly.

Most alarms on the market have both a positive and a negative trigger. Although both are supplied, sometimes only ONE type of trigger can be wired. If you have a car that switches 12V to a dome light and you want to install a motion sensor that supplies a ground, you must invert one of the signals. (i.e.The grounding motion sensor to a 12V sensor.)

Most cellular phones on the market today have a horn alert option.When wired-up to a cars horn, the horn alert will sound the horn when a call is received. (The ring key on the phone must be in the OFF position so that the phone knows you are out of the car.) NOTE:The phone alert wire supplies a low-current ground that must be isolated and sometimes converted, depending on the style of the car horn.
