That could be an indication of a connection issue on that circuit causing voltage spikes. Most especially, damage to the yellow output wires at the stator can destroy the regulator and relays. I have no idea. It was originally the starter I believe. Is that that front #1?...I moved so many around that I can't be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingbong Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I just found these on eBay.de made in USA. They have the extra T-R1 from the old Omron part number. Will they work? Says they are high current.. G8HE-1C7T-R1 5PIN DC12V relay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiomick Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Do you mean this ad by any chance? https://www.ebay.de/itm/176128295514?hash=item290210825a:g:OdAAAOSwNIZkF8rp&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8AwZlpW%2BYazOq6a%2F2TLrAwQglkMgom7EGX1QHsI1sznZygK3JkpPJqmdiOPNsX2DNbvCPwTyVCJ2zZhq6Ci5pE4IPXXe1ChEQTGPwwGJ67cPD1pSFGGicroYWKqgvHl%2BtyUC%2FTrQZZ4wdmUwNU%2FlI6qlcWrBVVOO2P2xSL0L%2B8QSVx%2F4POMcuyOghMP8CEk0Cdqy%2BbPBfdUe7riYbSQgFmFrFWJgFTIcUBCE18RBAckR0umge8gE0nCXQBml%2F56R3AgdSzElH4wm6G%2BJu%2FFEeq2MCGSCXDlm0r%2FZWifoOTGLSH%2FS8iZsEGr3LDpWtBO3kg%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR-LFwceuYw It says "Made in USA" on the relay in the pictures, but the listed location of the goods (Standort) is Shenzhen, China. Nevertheless, I dare say they would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While OMRON no longer produces them, it is not unlikely that some resourceful Chinese company bought up the NOS from other suppliers and has marked them up. Not sure what the US dollar price is on US eBay, but ~22 Euro for four is not bad (depending on the shipping). Of course, the price doubles if you want to buy five, because of their packaging quantity . . . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowRyter Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 My first failed relay on my two Guzzis was a replacement Omron. Luckily I have plenty, starting with the OEMs. The ones taken from the Greenie were Bosch. Now one of those has been returned to service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyroDan sold them for a short time before going with the Chinese GEI. Yet, even the Bosch are under-rated for Position 5 (fuel/Ignition) and, on the early V11 wiring (1999-2001), Position 1 (especially the "5th pin"/NC contact). Failure of a High Current relay can be an indication of voltage spikes from a faulty regulator or/and the nefarious detachment of the yellow charging wires at the stator. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've started adding dedicated grounds to my R/Rs to hopefully eliminate potential issues. I've never had a relay go bad,,,but definitely stop working because it wasn't seated into the socket correctly. If I can see the relays, I always confirm good contact & push them into place before the seat goes back on. fwiw ymmv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have replaced regulators on both Guzzis and at least one stator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
