    bypassing a dim dip unit

    Hi all, isnt a relay just another switch turned on and off by another electrical circuit? If you know how to turn the switch on or off by conecting or unconecting wires you could take out the relay and do away with this part of the circuit. That should be easy to find using a volt meter...
