Continued Problems with Controller (SOLVED)

FYX193 · 07-01-2008

My pump uses 14awg wire for both + and - leads. The controller uses the supplied wire for about 3 feet of length and then it is using a 14awg wire to go through the firewall to get the signal from the MAP sensor and to power both the 5v MAP Sensor and the Pump. The pump is located in the trunk, but the + wire is routed under the car all the way to the front engine bay where it is then passed through the firewall and connected to the controller. The controller is mounted to the top of my windshield. The length of + lead wire from the pump is about 25 to 30ft.

A 15 amp fuse is all that is needed. You will only connect the controllers red wire to the relay. The unit outputs what is inputed to it.

Thank you for all your help!!!

The controller is finally working as it should!!!

I installed a relay to divert the +12v power source from the 12v ignition to the battery. This fixed my appearent voltage drop issue. It is strange that my SRT-4 has a voltage drop issue when my friends SRT-4 doesn't have this issue, even though the install was done exactly the same way, using the exact same 12v ignition source wire.

Thanks Again for your help, this has been a very upsetting situation for the past year or so.

You should have jumped on here earlier to ask, Some cars do that, it's just a factory problem in the wire harness. The thing you must remember every car is different even if they come off the same line. Their just like people

Glad we could help you out. Customer service is what we are all about.
