Yes, once I found the use for the switch, I figured out the green line was on when the system is off, which sounds backwards to me but it's likely because of the way the switch and relay interact....

Sam,



Thanks for that backstory, it explains a lot, in particularly the use of two controllers (and probably why the relay is there as well). Too bad the tech I talked to at AMP Research...

KenInRockwall,


These posts are all kind of jumbled and it appears you didn't see my post where I in fact solved my problem which wasn't a problem with the system at all, just my ignorance due to...

I've seen that AMP brand override switch, but I wasn't aware that it returns to auto operation in the next door cycle after 30 minutes. I guess that's a good thing if you would be prone to forgetting...

I've got an email in to Peter asking him what the relay was for. That's a good starting point for a discussion about this issue. Most definitely on them though, or on the salesman anyway.

Big_ern_101,


I'm kind of backing off of criticizing AMP too much at this point given what I've found out about Sportsmobile's very non-standard install of the running boards.


You are right...

All this still has me confused wondering what function the relay plays in the process of extending and retracting the steps, and how it accomplishes that. I'm going to get back out to the van later...

Given those diagrams, I think you must be right and I was upside down in the way I was looking at the connections.

Referring to the wiring diagram on the relay in the photo I posted, two of the pins, 87 and 87a, have two red wires attached to them. I'm thinking that one controller is attached to 87, the other to...

Greg,


I think you may be on the right track here, although the manufacturer website says it is a "SPDT" relay. You can see an electrical diagram for it in the 3rd of the 4 photos I posted....

BIr_er_101,


I fully agree both controllers most likely did not die at the same time. In fact the more I read about it from you and other sources, the more convinced I am it's something else...

Arrow AMP Research Powerstep running board problem

Hi All,


I have a 2017 MB Sprinter that Sportsmobile West built out for us in early 2018. Included in the build were the AMP PowerStep running boards. They have worked flawlessly until...

Well, it could be a Sportsmobile thing or, perhaps more likely, I may be misremembering what fuse Michael was talking about!

Well, that's three of us that have seen it behind that control panel so I guess it is/was the standard place of installation. Why, I have no idea. It makes no sense unless there's a high probability...

I will do that. Thanks for pointing out the specific post. You have a lot of them (all useful, thanks for that too), and searching for anything very specific on the forum seems difficult to do.

Thanks Fitz. Maybe that's where mine is then. I couldn't see down inside that area well at all so it could be sitting at or near the bottom. I had read about splicing wires to install one so you're...

I wondered if I should look behind the control panel as it's not down under the seat. I'll check there tomorrow.
