Automotive relay tester / English
Introduction
Relay buddy is a quick go / no-go tester for relays that provides you with an indication of
the general health and functioning of the most common Automotive relays. Relay Buddy will
check the control side of the relay by applying a signal to the relay coil while it checks for
proper functioning of the relay contacts. Relay Buddy operates the relay several times during
each test session as it watches for consistency in every cycle. Relay Buddy will fail the relay
and light the RED LED if any one of the cycles proves unsuccessful during the test session.
Remember, it is impossible for the Relay Buddy to test the relay contacts under every
different load (Amp draw) scenario that your relay may encounter. A voltage drop check
across the closed contacts while in the actual live circuit may also be advisable.
