need some electrical help
For some reason I dont seem to be able to open the valves on my airride setup. I ahve power going to my switches, I have good grounds, I used 14 ga wire to wire the valves (was this too small?) Im really hoping its due to the fact that my battery was low at the time that I did this. battery is now on the charger If anyone has any ideas Id really appreciate it.

Re: need some electrical help
check all the wires to the valves and make sure theyre all good and not burnt or anything and check all other connections cause maybe something got shorted out somewhere, thats all i cant think of right now

but you should be able to barely hear the solenoid "click" a little once power is applied regardless of whether the system is pressurized or not. |

Re: need some electrical help
Mine had a rather loud click when switched. The best thing to do is listen, but if all else fails, run a speaker wire to the valve straight from the battery.
