Relays

[Cormach]

The alternator charging relay is a 16 amp 5 pin .could I use a 20amp 5pin as I can't find a 16amp relay

I would say go for it.
The rating of the relay determins the maximum current that it can switch without failing. So a rise from 16 to 20 AMP shouldn't cause any issues at all.

I just out the 20 amp in .with the new alternator .to find the battery is dead also so have to go get one
