Switching on/off and turning left/right.

Hello,

I would like to know how to switch a 12V motor on/off and how to turn it left/right with relays. I know that I need one relay to switch the polarity and one to turn it on and off, but I don't know how to hook these up. It would be nice if someone can get me a schematic overview to help me out.

Thank you in advance.

Maarten

You did not mention what HP the motor has. It is best to use a "hesitation switch" to prevent damage to the motor. Google it and you shall find! E

Here is how I do it.

Here is one using push buttons
