helping a buddy finish converting his 2 pumped s-10 into 4 pumps..... The front passenger pump wants to stick on.......We replaced the solenoids and still no luck.....I changed switch boxes because this one looked fucked-up.....The only idea that i can come up with is that the motor is "shorting" out and grounding power out through the rack.....the reason i have came to this conclusion is we have done about everything possible to that pump and it still sticks.......if you pull the diss-connect, you still have power in the switchbox and are able to use all the dumps......if you are to leave everything connected, but remove the wire from the motor to the solenoids, then you finally kill power to the switch box......... :dunno:

could be a bad switch cord, too. start from the cheapest problem and work your way up that way your spending too much $$$

it could be, but it could be anything too. probably one of the hardest things to do when fixing hydraulics is troubleshooting.
