Did you bring the relay with you? Sometimes they need a visual to understand...:crazy:

NAPA they seem to be a bit more knowledgeable.

Just curious as to where this relay is on your bike? Since the wiring diagram doesn't show one was it added later?

[KaptinAmerika]

Is this relay for a PDM

 

[Chrisnjax]

My 05 Pitt has a badlands lighting controller and has a kill switch relay .. and it looks like a 5 pole relay for the horn and the hi low beam headlight.

These are all the same part stamped JD142C-12V

NAPA - AR284
Advance Auto - R3018
V-TWIN - 32-0448

I think Custom Chrome is CC-17729

This may or may not help...but I'm using a VW relay from an 80's bug. Its a latching relay and can handle the momentary push button control for high low switch over. Working on a complete controller solution with a couple of those (one for headlight, one for run/stop) and some custom circuits to replace the EHC, WP, Munit, etc...fun fun!

If you have an 04+ big dog DO NOT use a relay wired directly to the hand control buttons. Relays dont have a diode reversed across the poles of the coil inside. When you energize the coil, it stores electricity, when you release the button, without a diode it will fire back through the button contacts like a set of points. A 15+ amp relay is also too much draw for the buttons, a relay driver is needed. You only have 100ma of capacity at the button at 12v since they are rated for 5v 250ma.

If using an AR284 (vw latching relay) a driver is absolutely needed, and you need to cut off the point reed inside the relay that powers the flash to pass circuit inside. If you dont you will feed the headlight directly through the button when switching to low beam.
