Rychu Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Hi, does anyone know what current is taken by this solenoid? TIA RICHARD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 As your sig says you have a 1500 Spit I assume you have a J-type OD fitted. These take ~ 2A so no relay needed (though you could use one if you wanted). Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rychu Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Thanks very much Nick, lim replacing the gear knob with another where I intend to mount an Illuminatied push button switch which is rated to 3A hence my question. i have a small 10A relay that I could use if I get any issues.

thescrapman Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 If D-type then about 20A pull and 1/2 A hold I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIMPUS Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I've put a relay on my OD (spit 1500 - j-type od) as every 3 to 6 months the gear lever switch went kaput... Now still works with the same after nearly 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
