Kwikee hydraulic pump question

[fernandoad]

Hi, I just recently bough a replacement kwikee hydraulic pump for my leveling system and I'm planning to replace it myself, but I have a question regarding the actual pump connections.

On the existing one, i can see two poles on the back of the pump (one to ground and one positive coming from the pump relay.

The new pump looks to have the relay already screwed to it, but I cannot find another pole but just one and its prewired to the relay.

Note: I've attached the picture of the existing vs the replacement pump for visual reference

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

thanks!

Welcome to iRV2.

Your replacement pump motor is internally grounded, as opposed to the external ground on the original.
Look for a place ( threaded hole ) on the new manifold to attach the existing ground cable, and everything should work properly.
