Larr,
Dang, since this is not one of my regular stops I did not realize that I had private messages here.
Sorry about that I didn't mean to ignore.

Larr,

GM and Larr,
First let me thank you guys for your info and for your patience with me.
It was a tough decision to have to step up and re-buy a fairly expensive relay.
However with that said.
THE...
Yes, out on the bench.
Positive voltage to the terminal with the fuse and a ground to the TH terminal. This activates the relay and puts voltage to the IGN and SOL terminals.
I opened it up but...
I should add that when the relay is tripped by applying voltage to the BATT terminal and a ground to the TH terminal I get voltage at both the IGN and the SOL terminals.
Still stumped.
LARR said - Use your meter to find the two contacts that have continuity between them.
OK, I have continuity between the SOL and IGN terminals as well as continuity between the TH and BAT terminals....
Thanks for this Larr.
It will be a week or so before I can get back to this.
I kind of thought that I may have a bad relay. I bought it from this site KW even though it cost a hundred more than the...
OK, I have been spending some time here and I am finding that the only two terminals on the relay that have continuity are the one that has the fuse (batt) and the (TH) terminal.
Earlier suggestion...
Well, I couldn't stand it and had a few minutes.
The only terminals that have continuity on this relay are on the same end of the thing and one of them has the fuse.
So, I am thinking that maybe...
Wait, you said negative side of coil? Would that not be the distributor side?
The Jeepster is negative ground.
The lead to the pedal switch is on the negative side I think.
Thank you LarrBeard, I think this is what I am looking for.
You make it sound pretty simple and being rather simple myself.....LOL
A couple of questions.
Would the (TH) and the (IGN) as well as...
This relay that I have is not marked as to which terminal is which.
It is also common to Studebakers and Fords and other six volt negative ground cars as many suppliers sell this relay.
BUT NO ONE...
Thanks GM,
Yes, this is the 12 volt diagram, there is no diagram on the 6 volt offering.
I wired it up as per the 12 volt picture and it does not work, it clicks as soon as I hook up the battery, I...
I recently bought one of the aftermarket six volt OD relays.
None of the terminals are marked and I have yet to find the right combination to make it work.
I did find a site that identifies the...
