Peaklander Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 This is my circuit although I drew the relay contact as normally open but it is the normally closed pins that are used. This means that when the level is OK, current flows and the relay is energised and the warning light stays off. Relay is an Omron G5V-1 which has very low current draw for the coil. This prevents burning of the reed switch in the cap through excessive current draw. It has been in place for a year. As the power is applied at ignition-on though, the relay switches too quickly to be able to see the warning light flash as a circuit test. I really need to modify it with a little delay timer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a job for a 555? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
