    20230607_215500.jpg This what the "regular" kind looks like. I tried installing this by drilling new holes in the box but where the latch hooks on the box it has a welded attachment that these cannot fit in. It's a scam lol.

    I'll get it figured soon enough. No worries

    Did you get the dump valve figured out?

    If you haven't ran it in four years, you need to hook battery power directly to it. I'd almost guarantee it's seized, so even if you have it wired correctly, it still won't work.

    For the wiring, how are you providing power to your pigtail? Factory dash switch? Did you install a switch? I might have missed that part of your post. Either way, when the switch is actuated, are you getting power where you think you're supposed to be getting it?
