There have always been 2 different standards for “Normal” relays on cars A type and B type. I expect it was the usual UK V others like wiring colours.
Jim From: Derek Clews Sent: Monday, August 5, 2019 6:52 PM To: Quantum Owners Forum Cc: Derek Clews Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Nose Cone Wiring HI All, Checking through my wiring again and found the wiring fault is a transposition of wiring terminals in the relay socket. The original one was a type A and it seems everything for sale aftermarket now is a type B. The pins 30 & 86 are reversed. They are the constant 12V and Earth on the diagram! Continuity checking the wiring and it all seems OK otherwise. The motor still runs correctly when isolated and powered by external battery, just not given the right signal due to the relay/wiring configuration. Found a website that explained it. https://www.12voltplanet.co.uk/relay-guide.html Did not even know it was a possible to have a difference. So pass it on to stop us being caught out. Was type A a flasher relay perhaps?

All the diodes do is drive the relay to position the headlamp cover motors so only the coil current of the relay is passed through the diode.

If it's working, they're probably fine. But if it fails, consider getting a diode with a higher reverse voltage rating. Of course getting one that is encapsulated is not going to be easy, but there are easy ways to solve that problem. Meanwhile, don't worry.

When I rewired mine I got these from car builders solutions. https://www.carbuildersolutions.com/uk/silicon-diode They seem to work and they were the only diodes they sell. Chris G -----Original Message----- From: Derek Clews Sent: Saturday, August 3, 2019 8:59 PM To: Quantum Owners Club Cc: Derek Clews Subject: [Quantum Owners] Nose Cone Wiring Dear All, In the Q manual the nose cone wiring has two diodes. The values required are not mentioned. What was the Quantum spec? I appreciate it is in a 12V system so 15 or 16 volt would cover, but does anyone know the minimum wattage?
