Fore pump won't prime! Need help! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Alright so like the title states. My fore l2 double pump will not prime.

I was getting ready to purge the lines before hooking them up to the rails. When I turned the key on the pumps did not kick on. Went back and verified the connections from the tank to controller and controller to battery are definitely connected. All other systems of the car are getting power.

Not grasping why the pumps are not kicking on. Im running to grab a battery for my volt meter to ensure that power is going to the controller. In the mean time has anyone else had this type of issue?

Check Fuses?

Sorry. I never updated the post.
I got in touch with fore and we figured out the issue. The controller needed an additional 12v source to trigger the pumps. It was a brain fart on my behalf.
I did not have an ignition source going to the "remote" terminal. I mistakenly thought that it was for a hobs switch which I am not using.

Just curious are you running both pumps full time?

Yes. I'm currently running them both full time right now. It's not a daily driven car. I will put the second pump on a Hobbs switch eventually. Just haven't gotten around to it.

Did you ever get around hooking up the Hobbs?

Which ignition wire did you tap for your trigger?

We just started carrying these pumps. Killer set up.
