Re: replaced solenoid, now nothing
Yes, and did it on each wire going into the vglide and got a full reading on each.
Is it possible that when I initially wired the first solenoid wrong I could have blown the limit switch on the F/R control. That is where the yellow wire goes into. OR.......could I just have a bad solenoid? Is there any way to test just the solenoid? I live in a rural area so running out to get parts is not possible. Unfortunately I have to order everything from the net. |

Re: replaced solenoid, now nothing
In answer to your Q at the top of this page... yes the micro switches are very polarity sensitive and if you short them out they will blow in a nano-second.
Test any solenoid by providing positive current to one small post and negative to the other small post. This should activate the switch. Check that the switch works when activated with a volt or continuity meter across the 2 large posts. |

Re: replaced solenoid, now nothing
Thanks Scottyb. Just figured out this morning that I blew a switch in the VGlide.
Thanks again for everyone's help. For a rookie like me this forum and the folks on it are a blessing!!! |

Re: replaced solenoid, now nothing
Thanks Rabbit. Started testing them yesterday morning and the first one I tested was completely dead. Still surprised I figured it out but there may be hope for me yet. As I understand it, it's not unusual to blow a switch when you pop a diode like I did. I am learning a lot by reading the posts on this site and getting help from people like you. Again I appreciate your patience and help.
Something tells me I will be back looking for help again!! |
