wellington Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I have a SAZ1500D, xm-6020, xec-700 all on the same remote turn on from a DNX-6160 and never had any problems at all I am using 12 or 14 pure copper stranded (it's the thick hard to bend stuff) into the sundown and then into the other amps in a daisy chain setup 2010 HHR LT - DNX 6160 - sony xec-700 - sony xm-4040 for door mids - XM-6020 for tweets in a-pillar - saz1500d v1 - VVME RD-12 1.75 f^3 32hz guru and president of the "cheap asses trying to beat up the block with bargain bin woofers" club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellington Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Are the amps drawing power from the remote lead? 2010 HHR LT - DNX 6160 - sony xec-700 - sony xm-4040 for door mids - XM-6020 for tweets in a-pillar - saz1500d v1 - VVME RD-12 1.75 f^3 32hz guru and president of the "cheap asses trying to beat up the block with bargain bin woofers" club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aratyhq Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Which one is the correct way to wire a relay / remote A - 87...... 12 volt positive 86...... Remote Turn On Lead (HU) 85...... Ground [ in400] diode 86 --> 85 30...... Remote to amp/proccessor/etc B - 87.... ground 86....Remote to amps/proccessor/fans/etc 85....Remote Turn On Lead (HU) 30....12 volt possitive A OR B ????

ImaNoob Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I just made one and it works, lol. I know nothing about relays or electrical for that matter. Dosent look as good as the ones sold but it does its job. on a side note if you dont have all the supplies to make this already, you would be better off buying one put together already.< in my case anyway i live 15 miles from anything.

ImaNoob Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Before using a relay, realize that: 1. Most power amps and processors require between 10 and 20 mA of current to power the turn-on circuit 2. A "bosch" type relay requires between 110 and 120 mA of current to power the coil 3. Most source units are capable of between 250 ma and 500 ma or current on their turn-on leads (this will be specified in the owners' manual) Finally, connecting a relay as shown to the turn-on output of a source unit could actually damage it. I would strongly recommend installing a diode across the coil of the relay (in reverse bias - stripe side to turn on lead and non-stripe side to ground). When power to the coil of a relay is turned OFF, the electromagnetic field within the coil collapses. This can in some cases result in a very large voltage spike traveling up the turn-on output of the source unit, which could damage it. The diode will shunt this spike to ground, thereby making the addition of the relay harmless. I hope you get to see this as I think I did this correctly, this is a diagram I made of how I wired my relay with the diode. Just like this ... 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Xs3400 1500BDCP FI BL 12 3sq @ 32hz Rockford t675 T400.2 Stinger Deadner Build Log Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
