Re: Fuel tank selector switch wiring

OK, the Pollak's wiring diagram is basically identical to the OEM.

So, on the Pollak connector:

A: Right sending unit (OEM color: Pink/Black)
B: To fuel gauge (OEM color: Pink)
C: Left sending unit (OEM color: Pink/White)
D: Left pump 12V (OEM color: Tan)
E: Right pump 12v (OEM color: Gray)
F: Empty

At the OEM dash switch:

C: 12V from relay (OEM color: Tan/Black)
Opposite of C: Ground (OEM color: Black)
D: Left pump 12v (OEM color: Tan)
Opposite of D: Right pump 12v (OEM color: Gray)

Note that on terminals "D" and "E" that the wires (12v) will go directly from the switch to the valve. You will also need to tap a wire off of those to run to the pumps. The wires running from the switch have two functions: 1] is to power the pump, and 2] is to power the valve to make it switch to that tank/pump.

The OEM schematics for the switch only show terminals marked "C" and "D", and I can't find my drawing of the OEM switch, so just note above where I mention "opposite of xx" means directly across from that one.

The ONLY difference between the two drawings is the location of the power and ground on the toggle switch. If you are using the OEM switch, wire it like the above. If you are using the Pollak toggle switch, wire it like their diagram shows.
