I don’t do sarcasm, I am a very literal person. I am removing all my mid structure and am replacing all the hydraulic control with a hand pump. I literally need to use it to lower the spare tire one last time then I am done with the valve…

Thank you for the clarification Ronmar. Can I contact you on a personal message as to what you would consider? Thank you for the video link

So here's what I got going. Thanks to Ronmar I have a working Hydraulic Control Box and Air Pump. So I set it up to test flows and what I speculated would happen when I flowed oil. The Controller worked great and gave me a platform to work from for when I get my other Box home I can figure out what is wrong with it. I'll post what I find out then.
I do have to say that even with no load on the plumbing that the pump will blow those vinyl lines off the Push Lok fitting in a heart beat but if you pump really very slowly that you can create oil flow and watch how the air bubbles travel and if it reverses when you switch the polarity and the whole function.
Thank you Ronmar and I will post my findings later when I test the other unit.Hydraulic Control Box.jpgHydraControlBox.jpg
