When fitting the Relay, time and care must be taken to properly decide on a
mounting location. Some key factors that must be considered are:
x The Relay must be mounted outside the vehicle. (not under bonnet)
x Total distance between first and last sensors.
x Total distance of car, truck, car + trailer etc.
x Vehicle/trailer structure (chassis/body density etc)
Please remember that any metal between the sensors/relay/monitor may play
a part in limiting the signal transmission between Tyredog components.
Although a metal object may not be in the direct line of sight between the
components, it may still hinder signal transfer if the object is nearby or offside
to the signal transmission path.
When mounting the Relay, be sure that it is mounted away from moving parts,
(tail shaft, axle, etc.) sources of heat (exhaust) and is fitted in such a place
that would keep it protected from potentially damaging terrain.
The Relay should be mounted using the supplied heavy duty bracket and an
existing bolt like shown in the diagram below.
Drilling holes into a vehicle’s body/chassis is not recommended as this may
affect the structure and your vehicles Warranty.
Once the bracket is firmly mounted to the Car/Truck body, the relay can be
mounted to the bracket with the supplied screws and washers.
