MO.FLASH by Motogadget

The mo.flash is an electronic flash light relay.

The device can only switch resistive loads like light bulbs or LED lamps up to a maximal
current of 7A (equivalent to 4 light bulbs with 21W). For a proper operation a minimum load of 1W is necessary.

Some LED indicator lights have a power consumption below 1W. In this case the delivered load resistors have to be connected in parallel to on an indicator light of each side.

The resistor stays cold during operation and can be integrated into the connecting cables. The device is not suitable to switch capacitance loads (horn) or inductive loads (coils, relay). The ambient temperature must not below -20° (-4°F) and not exceed +85° (185°F).

Power supply

The mo.flash can operate in a voltage range from 5,5V to 18V DC and is suitable for 6V and 12V vehicle power systems. Operating the device without a battery, for example, using a direct connection to the vehicle's generator is not envisaged or recommended.

The device will not switch if used with a voltage below 5,5V. A voltage higher as 18V will destroy the device. Also a short circuit (operate without a load) will destroy the device. Do not use the device if it is not working properly (indicators are permanently illuminate).
Replacing the OEM Turn signal relay by the mo.flash Turn vehicle power off.

Connect the cable named 49 or B from the OEM turn signal relay socket with the mo.flash red cable. Connect the cable named 49a or L from the OEM turn signal relay socket with the mo.flash black cable. The remaining third socked cable (if existing) will be not used and
insulated after cutting off the socked. Solder or crimp the cable in a proper way. Insulate the connection joint with shrinking tube.

Installing the mo.flash in a self-made wiring loom Please consider following recommendations for choosing the place of attachment:
 Spray water protected
 sufficient distance to hot engine or exhaust parts (max. ambient temperature in operation is 85°C)
 minimum distance of 30 cm to sources of electromagnetic interferences (ignition coils, high tension cables).

Important is a sufficient strain relief and bend protection of the connection cables. At mechanical stressed areas an additional insulating is necessary to prevent damage at the cable insulation. It must no mechanical stresses and strains act on the device (pull, push or shock forces). The device has to be attached direct at the cable loom with plastic cable ties.
