I am in the "dark" about this - relays, why are they effective?
My ignition dash switch went out on me about a year ago. In the wait time
to get a new switch, lock, keys, etc I wired my lights up to a simple off /
on switch on my dash.
My ignition switch is wired under the dash to a place that would not be
obvious. I reach under the dash to turn the car on before I pull the
starter (which is wired to an off / on switch behind the dash).
Did I need a relay to do this? The car has been running fine like this for
a good while now.
Are relays used when you want two things to turn on together? Ok, stupid
question. . . but I am curious regarding the application or the reason for
relays?
