Re: NO MORE CLICK click CLICK START..ONLY START!

The relay involved here uses normally closed contacts which rely on spring pressure, in order to maintain contact. The relay is being used in accordance with its absolute maximum specifications and therefore trouble is always likely. It is included in the security system in order to interrupt the starter circuit, when the system is armed.

If this feature is not considered necessary, or in the event that the OEM security system is nor being used, the relay can be, and should be removed and bypassed.. The two wires coloured blue/white and black/white, connected to the sockets in the connector, which form an inner "T", should be connected together, or the sockets securely bridged.

It could be a good idea to have this information included in the new how too section.
