Greets.
It looks as if I'm having the same problem that MafiaDon had a while back. Since no one specifically addressed his issue... I thought I would give it a go...
While trying to figure out my Trunk Close Assist and Handle Retract (Two SEPARATE systems!), I have narrowed the Handle non-retract back to the PSE pump.
I have run the Pump, and it gives tremendous Pressure, and a Strong Vacuum....
So, I dismantled everything, and have hooked a Tester to the Nipple where the PUMP normally connects to...
Of course, I have plugged all of the "Output" nipples.
When I apply PRESSURE, I hear a "Diaphragm-Like" Click, then quickly loses pressure, followed by a similar "Diaphragm" sound at around 50 millibars (both directions).
I believe I hear the noise from Valve Thing-y on the last photo. The "Piston" does move slightly outward with Pressure, but quickly retracts.
I have checked all of the big black "J" Shaped Hoses "look" fine. I would rather not yank them off, and risk damaging one.
I can hear NO "Hiss" or other sign of a leak.
Any suggestions??
Is there actually a "Manifold" running within the "Base" (ie. where the Pump Line attaches to the PSE). Can this leak? Do you think it could be one of the Black Hoses?
Uffff, I'm starting to get a little frustrated with the whole deal....
Thanks for any input.
