Alpha Drive takes 3-4 minutes to come up, takes 3 seconds to go down???
The only way to even get the drive to come up is to switch the Blue up wire to the down green wire.
But thats when the drive goes up and takes 3-4 minutes, versus 3 seconds on down.
When wired correctly UP wont even work.(Replaced solenoid already).
Troubleshooting:
Power directly to pump, both green and Blue engage the pump motor.
Help???
Seems like the down button is engaging the higher pump pressure cause it goes so fast, and up switch goes so slow???.
Ordered a New pump complete with soleniods etc, but I dont think thats the problem.
Why wont pump work unless Green and Blue wires are reversed on solenoids, and why the speed up and down so messed up???
Sorry for long post, offered to take a look at boat, now I am stuck.
