Hello everyone!
I ordered recently a 12V DC solenoid valve, a valve that's electrically controlled (*The datasheet of the valve is attached). However, I received the valve without wires and I'm not sure about the wiring connection because there are three pins in the valve and I just want two wires out of the valve to connect it to a 12V DC battery. I looked for wiring connection on the internet and I tried to wire the valve as following (The red for +ve and the black for -ve and skipped the middle pin):
I tried to connect it then to a 12V DC battery, the red to +ve of battery and the black to -ve of the battery and there was spark at each time I try doing this. Today I tried again to connect it the same way but this time to the breadboard instead of connecting it directly to the battery. However, the wires burned out and there was a smoke!
Anyone can help me how to connect the wires to the valve and then to the battery? the valve needs 12V DC to operate and I have a 12V DC battery but I don't know how to connect the wires and then connect it to the battery. Thanks in advance, regards
