Do you like Tinkering with your Tesla? Do you like adding additional features to it without having to install old style switches to control them? Do you want to control additional lights or devices based on specific conditions of the car (charging, driving, turning left/right, ger forward/reverse, high beams on, blind spot monitoring signals, or specific button presses on the steering wheel)? Then Tinkla Relay is a must have Swiss Army Knife for Tesla Model S/X integrations (and very SOON Model 3/Y).
Tinkla Relay is a device that connects to your Tesla power and CAN and has 4 output relays that are turned on/off based on your settings configured via DIP switches. The maximum output for the relays is 12V and up to 3A total between all on channels at a time. This is enough to drive GPIO signals, trigger relays for larger consumers or turn on notification LEDs.

Installing the Tinkla Relay
Tinkla Relay can be either installed using the provided harness directly into the OBD2 port or hardwired directly into the car power and CAN lines. To connect directly to Tinkla Relay you need a Molex 34791-0080 connector with the following wiring:
| Tinkla Relay Wiring | ||
|---|---|---|
| Pin | Use | Connect to |
| 1 | CAN 1 Low | Chassis CAN Low |
| 2 | CAN 1 High | Chassis CAN High |
| 3 | Not Used | |
| 4 | CAN 2 Low | not used on Model S/X |
| 5 | CAN 1 High | not used on Model S/X |
| 6 | Not Used | |
| 7 | GND | car ground |
| 8 | 12V | car accessory power or permanent power, depending on application |
