golden rules for the refit..........
make sure ALL earth point are 100% clean [thats motor mount points/sol mount point/battery earths/everything]
discard any/all damaged/suspect cables and wires
start with FULLY charged batteries that have been load tested
check that the main shutoff works with a volt meter at every battery fed point


if you are going to drive it with one pump to the back remember that it will roll on corners.............




how do u mean roll on corners ??
3 pumps is gonna be temp if i can get pump redone .

ok time to ask stupid questions again, but how do i load test .
also daddy , how does the stwich  sysem work with the relays , i will admit i dont fully understand wot the relays do , are they just for the accumilator cut offs or do they drop voltage to switch box or none of the above .
thanks again  .

as you have connected both back rams to one pump with a tee ................

when you lift [parked ] as long as both corners weigh the same they will lift an equal amount

when you corner the weight on the outside corner effectivly increases so oil will be pushed from that side to the other side

load testing..... you need a load tester [machine mart or any battery supplier]

its a long time since I fitted it but
as I remember all the acc valves are fed from a relay. The relay is switched by ignition volts so accs are automatically on when you drive and off when you park to dance. There is an off switch somewhere [ant E ?] so you ccan have them off when driving if you want.

I think the switch box runs on the car battery and switches relays that energise the pump sols [ant E ?]
