Re: Quicksilver Remote Control Wiring
Also…here are some test I have already done. Based upon the test conducted below. I believe that my switch is good as well as the wiring..Now
. Firmly believe that my up solenoid is bad. Figure since I am going to replace on, I might as well replace both at the same time.
Any recommendations on testing the trim switches to see if they are OK?
1. Trim Pump Motor test
a. Connect a jumper wire between positive (+) solenoid terminal and BLUE/WHITE motor lead terminal – Results….motor ran
b. Connect a jumper wire between positive (+) solenoid terminal and GREEN/WHITE motor lead terminal – Results….PASSED ….motor ran
2. Solenoid Test
a. Connect jumper wire between positive (+) solenoid terminal and BLUE/WHITE harness wire terminal. Results…FAILED…Only clicking noise from Solenoid
b. Connect jumper wire between positive (+) solenoid terminal and GREEN/WHITE harness wire terminal. Results… PASSED ….motor ran
3. 110 AMP Fuse Test
a. Check for voltage at terminal “1” using a volt meter. Voltage MUST BE indicated before proceeding with next check. – Results….PASSED…Voltage received
b. Check for voltage at terminal “2,” using volt meter. – Results….PASSED…Voltage received
4. Solenoid Harness test (Image attached IMAGE1)
a. Connect a jumper wire on bottom terminal (Red) to left terminal (Blue). Results… Results…FAILED…Only clicking noise from Solenoid
b. Connect a jumper wire on bottom terminal (Red) to top terminal (Green). Results… Results… Results….PASSED ….motor ran
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that there is solid connection from the harness to the solenoid switches.
5. Switch to Control Arm Harness Test (Same Wire Test IMAGE2)
a. Connect a jumper wire on Red terminal at trim button to Red terminal at Control Arm harness (Bottom) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
b. Connect a jumper wire on Blue terminal at trailer button to Blue terminal at Control Arm harness (Right) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
c. Connect a jumper wire on Green terminal at trim button to Green terminal at Control Arm harness (top) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
d. Connect a jumper wire on Purple terminal at trim button to purple lead bullet connector.(end that connects to trim switch) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that there is solid connection from the switch to the end of the male connectors in the harness (For purple to the end of the lead bullet connector.
6. Switch Only Test
a. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Green Wire (Out/Up) on the trim rocker. Toggle rocker DOWN…. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
b. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Purple Wire (In/Down) on the trim rocker. Toggle rocker UP…. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
c. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Blue Wire (Out/Up) on the trim rocker. Push Trailer button in…. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that the switch is good.
7. Switch and Control Arm wire test (Switch & Control Arm lead bullet connectors connected)
a. Connect a jumper wire to the Red bullet connector and Green bullet connector (Out/Up) on the trim rocker. Toggle rocker DOWN…. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
b. Connect a jumper wire to the Red bullet connector and Purple bullet connector (In/Down) on the trim rocker. Toggle rocker UP…. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
c. Connect a jumper wire to the Red bullet connector and Blue bullet connector (Out/Up) on the trim rocker. Push Trailer button in …. Results….PASSED …. 25 ohms received
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that that there is continuity from the switch to the beginning of Control arm wires
8. Switch and Control Arm Harness test (Switch & Control Arm lead bullet connector connected)
a. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Green terminal at Control Arm harness (top) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
b. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Purple lead bullet connector.(end that connects to trim switch) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
c. Connect a jumper wire to the Red wire on the trailer button and Blue terminal at Control Arm harness (right) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that that there is continuity from the switch all the way thru the end of the male terminals in the Control Arm Harness
9. Control Arm Harness to Control Arm Harness
a. Connect a jumper wire to Red terminal at Control Arm harness (Bottom) to Blue terminal at Control Arm harness (Right) - Push Trailer button in.. Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
b. Connect a jumper wire to Red terminal at Control Arm harness (Bottom) to Green terminal at Control Arm harness (top) - Toggle rocker DOWN… Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
c. Connect a jumper wire to Red terminal at Control Arm harness (Bottom) to Purple lead bullet connector.(end that connects to trim switch) - Results…PASSED…20 ohms received
NOTE: Above test is only to prove to me that that there is continuity from beginning to end of Control Arm Harness
