Replacing an OPTO-22 Quad Relay

To replace a relay:

Press in the "Emergency Stop" switch on the front of the relay enclosure.
Using a small Phillips screwdriver, undo the relay retaining screw.
Unplug the relay.

If the relay you are replacing is a failed output relay

Check the two 5 amp fuses associated with this relay.
If they're blown, find the short or other cause of the failure, otherwise, you'll just kill the new fuses or relay. See "Relay Fuses".
Install the new relay.
Secure with the screw (optional).
