It probably is a pot as the tractor has a readout between 0 & 100, fully down to fully up, but the manufacturer states that the socket output is 0v down & 12v up. I cant see a pot or any other devise, assume it is mounted internally. I have re checked the socket and on down I do get 0.3v, would that be enough to power the transistor?
The reason I need to power a relay is that I have a Trimble sat steering box and for coverage logging I need an open and close circuit. Trimble state that there must be no voltage just open & closed. So initially I thought a simple relay would suffice but I have tried from automotive relays to the lowest power relays I can find but there is not enough power for them.
