Relays are extraordinarily useful and simple once you get the hang of it.  You'll think of a million uses for them once you've gotten this problem solved.

And they make such a satisfying clicking noise.  But I agree with PL1, run a 5v relay and remove the zenner diode from your mech.  Even if it pulses out a 12v signal, the duty cycle on your relay will be low enough it won't affect anything or even get a chance to warm the coils.

Hi guys. I am back home and I have re-entered my lab... ready to battle again lol

I've taken a look at the wiring diagram of my 5v relay. Have a question because it doesn't explicitly mention COM / NO /NC etc.

I have colour code tagged the diagram with what I assume it means.

You're reading schematics like a pro.   ;D
