Reed contacts
Depending on their version reed contacts fulfill the task of a
closer or a change-over switch. They respond to a magentic
field, thus making possible contactless switching operations.
They consist of a glass bulb filled with a protective gas.
Sealed in the glass bulb are two or three reeds made of a
magnetic material. When bending the legs the glass bulb they
can be easily damaged through mechanical strain.

Mounting the FCS-3

Preparation
Open the housing of the vehicle. Locate the position for the module.
Disconnect all connections from the accumulator batteries, the motor and
the mounted reed contact except for the lead-in wire to the charging
contact. Follow the connection diagram fig. 2 (page II in the centre of this
handbook) and the special features of the addional components.
In many vehicles the resistor R7 shown in the connection diagram is
mounted into the lead-in wire to the motor. The resistor has to be
connected to the plus pole of the accumulator battery if not yet
mounted that way. If there is no resistor, R7 is not applicable.
Connection to the supply voltage
Connect the connecting point X2 to the plus pole of the accumulator
battery and the minus pole of the accumulator battery to the existing
switch S of the vehicle. Connect the second pole of the switch to the
connecting point X1.
!
Caution:
The module should not be connected the wrong way round. Otherwise
it will be destroyed when put into operation.
Connection of the existing reed contact
The existing reed contact has three connecting points, one at side A
and two at side B. Connect the connecting point at side A to the
connecting point X2 and the plus pole of the accumulator battery.
