right i need to wire my ai606 to a boot solionoid now im pretty sure that the alarm isnt powerful enough to operate the solonoid itself, so i have invested in a relay all i need to know is which wire do i connect to the relay and how does it wowrk i.e. will the relay supply a 12v current down the wire cause if thats the case then i can sort it fine so which wires are the two wires for extra use cheers.
Jake, Get popping off the rear cover in the boot and crease the rod (o errr) i had the same problems with the boot this morning and fixed it witha little bit of wd40 and grease! All wworking spot on now!! rich
Cheers, I'll do that even though I was kinda using it as a cheap excuse to myself to do a remote release. I quite like the idea of pressing a button and it happens....
yeah if u can be arsed with the hassle! If not go and do it it now, cheap and easy to do, pop the cover off, watch out the the little studs flying off as you do it and bobs ya uncle!
i have a feeling its -ve but i dont actually know that is the way i would have thought it should be if it was -ve now i just need to find out whihc wire it is
There are 3 outputs you could use on the ai606, but one is specifically for the boot solenoid. Blue/Black cable: Output signal pulls low (to ground) connect to the coil of the driver relay for the boot release solenoid. For safety reasons this output can only be activated with the ignition off. Once activated, the boot and internal volume sensors are disabled until 20 seconds after the boot is closed. 500mA max So long as you haven't any other additional add ons to the system, the alarm's boot solenoid output should be defaulted to the correct settings. If not, you'll have to visit a Toad dealer with your PIN number to have them change the settings. HTH
cheers mate ill give that a look in a mo to see if i can find a blue and black wire thats not plugged into anything
rich cheers for all the help lads sorted this today now have my boot popping open from my alarm quality
