Relay Fuse Buddy
The Relay Fuse Buddy is deployed in diagnostic
situations where components have failed and/or
circuit wiring may be faulty.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
* With full relay bypass capability, the user can
plug into any relay-controlled circuit, directly
at the fuse panel. There, the user can control
power to components downstream of the
relay via the on/off switch, giving certain
troubleshooting advantages.
* Questionable components can be activated
within sight or listening distance. Diagnostic
decisions regarding the wiring or the component
can then be made.
* The component amp draws can be
viewed without the need for an expensive
amp clamp.
* Displays live circuit current - 20A
continuous / 30A momentary.
* Greatly enhances your customer's
circuit and relay test capabilities, cutting
diagnostic times.
MANUFACTURING SPECS
Relay Fuse Buddy can read currents up to
20A continuously and up to 30A momentarily.
There are six interchangeable adapters for the
most popular relays in the field. The tester can
be used on vehicles up to 48V.
APPLICATION

wiring may be faulty. Bypass of circuit power at
the fuse panel is quite valuable and saves time
when working under the hood.
SELLING POINTS

strength of two popular products Fuse
Buddy and Relay Buddy.
* It will give your customer unique shortcuts
when troubleshooting circuits, which are
not available in other products.

ORIGIN
The idea for Relay Fuse Buddy spawned from
various trade show conversations and even
some phone calls from end user techs. Many
techs love Fuse Buddy, but also wanted to plug
it into relay-controlled circuits. Given the different
relay footprints on vehicles, it would require
a set of several adapters. The bypass switch was
added to the relay adapters and the product
came together.
