was at the river for 4 days last week and had some issues. the first day i noticed my jetovator would only come up about half way. day two barely at all. the last two days i didn't mess with it at all. got home and put it on the trailer and began to mess with it then realized it won't move at all. changed all the fuses with no results. realized the jetovator switch sticks on the down position. is the switch easy to replace. i'm no mechanic but thought it should be easy enough to switch out, just wondering if you guys have any advice.

So long as you have the same amount of Mounting post and take a picture or make a drawing of where all the wires go. Its a piece of cake.

Could be you have a pin hole in the fluid line. Another deal is that you need 12 volts to power the pump. If your not running a Banderlog Diverter relay or a Bosch type relay, your not getting 12 volts to the pump.

If its a Bennett Marine Pump, Try to loosen the 4 solenoids that are on top of the pump. They should be loose enough for you to rotate them in the Lefty lucy direction just a tad then re-tighten them.

If your low on Fluid your pump slowly fails t operate. Again a slow leak some where in the line or a crack in the reservoir. Had that happen too.
Good luck

cave,

i don't think it's a power issue. it wouldn't go all the way up when i was running on the river. who know's though. i'll just take it to Randy and get him to fix it. might have him give the boat a good detail while it's there. boat was in the river for four days and has that nice colorado river scum line on it
