> Check that you do not connect common ground of your PIC and motor. If so you need to separate them. If they separated then the problem is in relay's inductance.Check if you have proper decoupling capacitors near to PIC (it was discussed in the List) Tha problem may occure if power rises above 7 V due to any reason. And this can not be disabled. Check your power supply engineering - DOES IT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO SUPPRESS EMF? The better idea is opto coupler with triac to control a motor that fully decoupled motor circuit from control circuit. Regards, Vassili
