</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Kennyd ,

Boy , Looks like you have done alot to your 4110. I am a bit ignorant when it comes to hydraulic plumbing /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif , but I am getting a great education about it from reading posts like your on the diverter install etc. I hope you do not mind me asking a few more questions on the wiring for the lights. It was hard to tell from the picture of the 20A breaker , is that a self reset type ? Or a blade fuse type ? Also can you confirm that my understanding of how you wired the relay is correct.

Pin 30 = Power in from the breaker/fuse - 10 guage wire
Pin 85 = To Ground
Pin 86 = To ignition switch - On position
Pin 87 = To light switch on fender

The feed from pin 87 I assume you used for power in each on the switches on the fender ??

Instead of the seperate breaker / relay setup , I have a hella relay left over from another project that has a built in 15A replaceable blade fuse attached to the side of it. Would that be ok to use for 1 set of lights ? If so , could I swap the 15A fuse for a 30A and use it for 2 sets of lights.

I am current using the spare work light feed that JD provide on the back of the 4110 behind the seat. I'd like to add more lights /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Again thanks in advanced for the help. I'd rather ask the right questions ahead of time ...

The Circuit breaker is self-reseting, it works thermally I think?

Your pinout for the relay is 100% correct.

Your Hella relay will work fine for 1 set of lights, but I would not double the size of the fuse without knowing what the switch contant rating are, but you can make that call! New 30 amp relays are only about $4.00.

No problem asking questions, that is how we all learn /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Kennyd....
My apologizes for resurecting this thread but a couple questions came up & I'd appreciate your info. #1, your 12 accessory plug adapter you mounted on the fender, where did you get that & if you had a part number it would be great. #2, my accessory relay has 5 pins, there is #87 & 87A; my question is whether the relay is designed to have 2 loads on both those terminals? Thanks!

GoodGuy,
Good to here from you again!
#1-The 12v receptacle was bought locally at Advance Auto Parts. I do not have the part #, but it was less then $10.00 I think. If you can't find one locally, I'll be happy to get one for you.

#2-On my relay's, the 87A terminal is the N/C (normal closed) side, meaning it is connected to the 30 terminal with NO power applied to the coil, whereas the 87 terminal is the N/O (normally open) and is connected to the 30 terminal when power IS applied to the coil. I think this is standard, you can check yours with a VOM (volt/ohm meter)

Clear as mud?

Thanks Kenny....
We don't have an Advanced Auto but we do have a Napa & CarQuest so they should be able to get me fixed up. My 5 pin Relay is a standard Bosch unit & just to clarify when pin 86 is triggered by a switch, on 87 the circuit is completed to 30 & on 87a the circuit is broken to 30 ? I will hook up a DVOM over the holidays & "play" but as far as you're concerned is that how it works ? Lastly, your feed wire from the battery thru the breaker to the relay, was that #10 & why not pick your feed off the back of the starter, be it a shorter run & less drop ? Merry Christmas !

You have the pinout correct.
Why did I go to the battery? Just wanted to, you can go to starter if you want...No issues with that. I did use #10 wire, it is rated for 30 amps.

My offer still stands if you cannot find what you want...You could also try a marine/boat store for ones that are semi water proof.

Merry Christmas and may God bless you and your family!

If you click the links you should be able see them, or right click to select "open in new tab"-then right-click to select "save as" on your machine.

Everything (except the switches) has changed now anyway since I go the backhoe, I've added 2 LED lightbars and some LED strobes.
