A Tale Of 2 Vacume Hoses

Featured Replies

I know I know mick you said look it up in the manual. But its burried so far deep in the shed theres no way im gonna be able to find it. Especially after packing it even further:grin:

 

My 4wd doesnt work. McBrat tracked it down to possibly 2 vacume hoses going off of the solenoids. One goes to the actuator but we couldt figure out where the other one went. Any ideas

 

Buy the way ea82 push button 4wd

Both go to the actuator. One line from each of the 2 solenoids. One hose to each side of the diaphragm. One pulls into 4wd, the other pulls back to 2wd.

interesting because we didnt see 2 connections on the diaphram. I will give it a clean sweep tomorrow. Any idea as to which one gets hooked up to which.

If you get the vacuum lines to the diaphram hooked up backwards, it just means the switch will work backwards. In that case, just switch them around again.

 

IIRC, vacuum from the vacuum canistor should split into two lines, go into the solenoids, then off to the diaphram. Start at the source and see how far the vacuum makes it.

no the problem i was haveing is i was only seeing 1 connection on the diaphram

 

Did you find the other? It's on the other side of the *saucer*. You'd almost have to either feel for it or look from the bottom to find it.

lol me and him were both crawling on our backs trying to find the thing. Is it behind the mounting bracket.
