i have a painless wiring dual battery set up and the solenoid went bad- can I use this to replace it
1251448
Not sure, if the solenoid is in the starting circuit, I would say no, as it is only rated for 80 A and starting currents typically exceed that. If is for charging the second battery I would think it would work, unless you have a 100 A or higher alternator.

I use it on a tractor, to feed a pump on a sprayer at 12 volts at 25 amps continuous doesn't over heat

Yes. I am currently using it for my dual battery set up in my land cruiser. Works perfect so far

i don't you could use it with your set up, you would probably need a higher amperage version to suit.

It will work but you would be overloading it in the start mode...it would be fine for charging. You probably have a 250 amp solenoid. This is an 80 amp.

I have three batteries on my boat each is connected through an 80 amp continuous solenoid. The set up works fine it keeps me from having to open the hatch to turn the batteries on and off each time. ALWAYS remember to turn off when not in use or leave the battery charger on otherwise they will run the batteries down. Hope this helps. Charles

yes, tho if your truck doesn't have solenoids from a previous system, you will need to buy some from your installer or online. I suggest the installer, to match the parts, and make everything work properly.

Yes you can. Just attach the positive lead to the plus on the coil wire going to the distributor and neg to batt. It'll work

I wouldn't. Most people suggest using a direct connection to the battery with a relay even for just one since the current draw can blow the fuse on your factory wiring. With 2 you will definitely exceed the amperage rating and will need to wire them directly to the battery. If this sounds scary, it isn't. The wiring kit they sell on here comes with everything you need and works well. I have 2 on my Harley using their Kit.

Not sure, I would contact Battery Tender Company,I'm sure they could advise you.

The replacement could not be easier. I think I twisted off the old unit, then unplugged the connector, plugged in the new one, twisted into the locked position. Two minutes max. I think the new 9 volt battery comes with it.

I would love to answer your question but I don't know what a solenoid is. I'm not the installer but I will be more than happy to measure it if you tell me what part the solenoid is

I don't know for sure but I did find this information from another poster. "The battery I found in my units:Troily 1.2 volt 80mAh Ni-MH button batteryThere may be different battery manufacturers used depending who got the battery supplier contract on that batch. The important info is the size and power.The battery has a connecting "fork" so you will need to solder 2 points to replace the battery, it's as easy as soldering gets. I believe I've seen the battery available for about $1.50 on the web.Do not open the unit unless you are prepared to replace the solder-installed battery. There is nothing in the unit that should be played with, and there is a lead that is easy to break that will require more soldering should you break it."

My installation is grounded to the negative side of the battery, I recall the manufactures installation instructions showed a negative and a positive ground diagram so you should be able to do either.

J. Hur, This will not be a problem. I have 3 different models connected to my hard wired/ plus battery system. A total of 6. Some with different sensitivity than others. Since they are all made by First Alert / BRK. I haven't had any problem with them for over 21 years now. Plus they all come with a wiring harmess pigtail, should you damage your old one . I have noticed some of the new replacment detectors have replaced the 9-volt battery with two AA . To be honest, I think it's better . I hope this helps you. Ronnie

Most professionals will replace the shift solenoids at the same time. They are relatively inexpensive and subject to failure. Thank you

Use the same connections and swap out, replacing one for one. Be SURE to have the fuse off. This could seriously take off a finger. It's not hard to do. Get yourself a blanket, crawl under the rig and pull off the old unit. ( Be sure your rig is supported to a point that it can't come down and crush you). Outside of safety precautions, this is easy!

I want to do the something but can I remove the 12v solenoid and use a 110v solenoid? How much psi can put thru these?
497538
Yes. Just bypass the original unit and identify the inputs and outputs to perform the same functions. A good electrical knowledge would help.

I would change solenoid too. For the price it not worth risking not starting on water. I didn't but my starter was bad due to bring submerged

Yes, you can bypass a faulty ignition switch by applying +12v to the small stud on the starter solenoid. Don't try try to use the Power Probe to bypass the solenoid and jump between the large cables!
