Right again Scott,
I function checked the switch which is on the panel and it worked fine. =20

I pulled the squat switch sensor out and pressure checked it with bubble so=
lution on the outside of it and it is indeed leaking.  I sealed it with som=
e permatex but that's only a short term fix.

Part number on this switch is 45569-01250, no manufacturers name is visible=
.  so now I'm trying to find a replacement.

thanks for the help.
