Hope it keeps working.........

★★★☆☆

3.0

"I used the relay on my 1966 MGB-GT to bypass the original pressure switch in the break line circuit (brake lights came on with great delay) and work with a small plunger switch actuated by the brake pedal.

Incorrect Coil Specifications

"Use caution if you're designing around this product. A 12V coil with 400 ohms resistance doesn't draw 160 mA. Something is wrong with the specs. "
