- Tue Apr 11, 2017 6:34 am #64824 I have modified my sonoff basic to isolate the relay so that its disconnected from the main and will toggle a circle, like a switch. I have an older ductless AC unit that I would like to wire the sonoff in to toggle on/off Cool made. I unit uses a wired remote. I do not have any EE background and I'm afraid that I might fry it... I have attached two images, one of the remote and one of the circuit board; I drew a red box around where I think I need to make the connection to turn on cool mode. Any help with this project would be appreciated!





Here is another image if the first one was hard to see:

If you want the option of AC ON or AC OFF, this is not to bad to do but you will have no manual control. If you want to keep manual control or the fan option this will not be possable with a single relay.

No. The switch connection does not short horizontally.
