delay for warning lights
 
:confused:
gday boys
i was wondering what you guys have used in the way of a bulb check function
and time delay for the seat belt light and low brake fluid light i was thinking of using the alt circuit light but it does not stay on long enough
i have heard of a delay relay which by sounds of things will be nice and compact
any thoughts will be greatly appreciated
cheers

I wired my seatbelt light to my handbrake light

i got a time delay from a electronics shop up here on the suny coast , comes on for 15 seconds when ignition is turned on . cost about $30 .
i found out i had to have it just before redg and luckily had a spare light on dash , got out the label maker "seatbelt warning light" then tore the $%&er off when i drove out of main roads (rta)

Hi DNB04, Got any more details on that delay circuit? I'm wiring my dash at the moment and wouldn't mind incorporating one.

Cheers

i cant find receipt for it , but the place i got it is not far from work i will drop in tomorrow and see how much and let you know , as for redgo i did all what the engineer said to do and it went thru no probs , i had a mirror mounted to dash that he said would not get thru , but i was not going to mount a breakaway to windscreen and take off and possilbly break screen after (dont like them on screen ) and main roads did not say sh%T, same as reversing lights reflectors, took them off after redg, i have been driving for 18 months and never been done for any of the above , oh and my rear licence plate is under rear bar and no one has said sh$t also ,

Seat belt warning light.
 
I used a build yourself kit from Jaycar electronics. It was not real complicated but took a bit of fiddling.

The kit is an "interior light Delay" for cars.

The kit number is KC5392 and it costs $18.95. You can order online from Jaycar.

I cannot remenber exactly but I used the starter position on the ignition to trigger the delayed switching off. I think you trick the unit into thinking the lights were turned off. For some reason that I cannot remember, I used a relay to help confuse the circuit.

Good luck, I know it took me about 3 nights to get it right.

G'day,
Luckily the factory seats I bought have provision for a seat belt circuit already on the driver's seat. So as soon as you do buckle up the light will go off.
