    SUBES2 Switch-Question

    When using this switch to control both vent solenoid and pump, do those devices have to use the Positive (+) output from the switch, or can I provide (+) to the devices directly from the main battery positive(+) and simply use the switchable ground (-) ES2outputs to complete the circuit and energize the device ?
    Thanks,
    Kerry

    If the subtech unit is happy to switch positive or negative loads, that will work fine.

      Just make sure you get the polarity right on the input side of the switch (batter-to-switch). The DC brushed motor and solenoid don't care about polarity (unless motor direction is an issue).

        Roger that-the pump motor direction is crucial so I will take polar care.
        Thanks David.

          That switch is a jalopy, it takes like 5 seconds for it to respond LOL.
