Hella Question

Ive got Hella 500ff...i think, but i have a relay that always goes out about every 3 months and i was wondering if u could just cut it out and spice the wires together? it should still work right? what r the risks? thanks

 

I'm no electrical expert but that does not sound like a good idea.

It sounds like something is not right if you have relays constantly going out. You should double check all your wiring.

Are you running all four of those lights through one relay?

 

Well i figured out my problem and im going to just take it too an expert to have him do it the right way, he said everything looked fine but since my relay is in my engine bay its starts to corrode

I hope somebody is not trying to take advantage of you.

Wiring these lights really is a simple job.

 

Some relays aren't meant to be exposed to the elements. If the OP bought a cheap one in an autoparts store that's meant to be in the cab, I'd bet 3 months in the engine bay would fry it. OP, that being said, it shouldn't take an expert to take out the old relay and replace it with a better one, that's a 5 minute job unless you found something else wrong...
