Keystone State Thread

Yea, mine has the Southwest regions color code from what I've researched. It has more pearl in it. I am very particular about my vehicles. I rarely let other people work on them.

 

I think I am to far 15 miles or so North of I 78

 

Quick question regarding wiring.

Some context: I have 2 light bars wired to a single 50A relay, the bars draw a max of 50A (I couldn’t find a 60A relay on Amazon or anything). Going to a single switch. They’ve worked fine for about a year until now.


Now when I push the button either the light bars work fine or they don’t turn on. When they don’t turn on, the relay buzzes randomly and the built in light on the switch flickers/fades as if it’s struggling to get power. I already replaced the relay and it didn’t help. I checked all the wiring and nothing appears to be broken or exposed. I swapped the switch and it doesn’t help. The only thing that I didn’t check was the ground wire since it’s raining and I don’t really want to lay in water.

Question: So this weekend what should I check?

 

Check the ground first !!

To test bypass the ground run direct to negative side of the battery see if that gets you 100% operation

Then if possible disconnect one light bar at a time and see if things work 100%

What is the Hot side of the contact wired to A 50 amp fuse ??

Was the 50 amp relay replaced with a cheap chinese relay ??

 

The ground was the first on my list to check

Yes it’s wired to a 50A fuse. And I replaced the relay with the same relay that was there since when I ordered it they only sold them in a bag of 10

Thanks. Hunting isn’t illegal there, per say, but would be difficult with the proximity of houses.
Bow hunting has a 50 yard safety zone around occupied structures.

 

Another crappy, rainy day at JB-MDL.......

 

Post ‘em up

 

It was very crappy and rainy there today. I was there today and will be tomorrow

 

I'll be out in it the rest of the week & Saturday. A.F. wants to start the Holidays early.

 

^^^ This Only the state can regulate hunting. As long as you are following all the game laws you can hunt anywhere you have permission. Safety zones make it difficult to hunt some places but property owners can waive their safety zone if they want.

 

I passed a black 3rd gen sporting a Pa TW sticker. About 2:50 pm, on 202 south, I stayed on 202 and the 3rd gen got on 30 west...Anyone??

 

That was me!! Was just about to post seeing a second gen with a Pa TW sticker. Haha

 

I’m just there for some construction

 

Getting ready for my morning hunt at Grandma's. Hopefully the light snow we had helps me see them better.

 

I wondered why you were up so early??

Best of Luck every one killed makes the world a little safer for my Tacoma !!

 

Amen! Keeping PATW safer one giant woods-rat at a time.

 

I wasn’t sure if you noticed me. You’re the first TW member I’ve encountered (sort of) in my 9 plus years as a member.

 

Shoot me a PM and we'll make it happen. My shop is down in Chester.
