    Nothing worse than getting ready to spray and you pull the trigger and… nothing. Hopefully your pump is not toast and, if you are like me, you’ve simply blown a fuse. Pop open the battery compartment, pull out the battery and inspect the fuse. Sometimes it isn’t so obvious that he fuse is blown and the only way to be certain is to replace with a good fuse. I have learned to keep a few spare 5 amp blade-type fuses in my truck just in case. Not sure why but I seem to be blowing fuses during the charging process. I assume that plugging or unplugging the charger is creating a surge/short that’s blowing the fuse… Anyone else experience this? Possible other causes or fixes?

    Thanks

    Check all wires to be sure there are no bare spots on them. A bare spot may touch metal when the sprayer is moved, tipped or bouncing in the van. FYI: our urine detector is a continuity(sp) tester, meaning it can tell you if there is a connection between two points. Touch each end of the fuse to each point on the UD. If it beeps, the fuse is good. 🙂

    Sutton, you are such a handy creative fellow. Another good use for that urine detector is for scratching those hard to reach places.
