Guest Nickos Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 I see five relays under the seat of the Lemans, three larger and two smaller. Do we put the same Bosch relay in place of all those five? I assume it is the same Bosch (0 332 207 307) that I use in my Centauro already. Thanks Nickos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlaing Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 The Bosch number you have is definitely right for 2000 and 2001 model years. What year is your bike? Did you buy it new? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nickos Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 It is a 2001 model, bought it new (my cousin actually but we share bikes) and I wanted to know if the same Bosch relay could be placed in all five slots.

gthyni Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Short answer: yes Not that I have had any problems but it has been pointed out that the original Siemens relays was a common point of failure. So I though "better be safe than sorry" and replaced them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlaing Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Yep you can use that Bosch number for all. Long answer.... The only odd relay requirement is for the headlight relay which is designed to dim when the starter relay is activated. But you do not have to worry because all the Bosch relays of that number will work for the headlight relay, as well as the others. The headlight relay uses one more terminal than the other relay sockets. That terminal simply goes unused when the relay is used in the other sockets.

al_roethlisberger Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 ....my 2002 came with the "large/tall" and "small/short" Siemens relays mixed&matched from the factory as well. I was told by many that the "large/tall" units were the new and improved Siemens and that it seemed like they were reliable replacements. I still swapped them out to the Bosch, and in regard to relays, it's been trouble-free so far. I keep the original "large/tall/new-model" relays in my tool bag for spares. al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
