Jabsco Ballast Pump Wire Color Guide:
  • Red = Battery Positive +
  • Yellow = Battery Negative -
  • Orange = Pump Positive +
  • Black = Pump Negative -
Per wakemakers website I wired up my new switch like this. When I fill pump runs as should... when I drain nothing and the wires heat up... anyone have any ideas? I used walker makers pre wires switch connector. Ran 2 wire to the pump and a 2 wire to the battery... any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!
