Thanks Paul. It was because of you that I started looking at the right places. There is always a first :). The quality of wiring is terrible and no labeling or map of how things are wired. I also think many appliances aren’t well protected based on how things are wired. But I have learnt so much...
Update!
I just got the relays from Oreily and everything is working fine now but I will replace the relays with the Victron BP as soon as it arrives. Both relays were apparently dead (stock one in my hand). Thanks for all your help.
Hi Paul,
I did all the above and I do get 0 Ohms on the black wires to the ground bus. Checked both if them. Also all corresponding pins have 13v. The control panel still won't get power through these relays. Not sure what that means but I checked resistance on the relays as well and don't get...
I did actually check the relay pins after taking off connectors. They have dc. I need to do the backtracking to the bus bar with black wires. I will report on this tomorrow. Thanks again.

Thanks Paul. I will check this tomorrow. If not I will just get rid of the relays and use a 50 amp switch instead. It seems like too much hassle and not much use in drawing power all the time with these relays. I appreciate your help! Thank you!
Update!
I disconnected the 7AG from the breaker and reconnected. Now has power and was able to connect it directly to mains switch and everything turned on. But when I connect it to the relay it doesn’t power the control panel. Does that mean the relay has gone bad? Thanks.
Hi Paul,
This cable doesn’t seem to have power at the control panel end but has power at the breaker. I am wondering if there is anything in the middle somewhere that’s broke or the wire itself has gone bad? What do you reckon? when I feed the pump line to the main switch everything works...
Ok then I was doing it wrong. I took the tape off of the other one and that cable has no power. See attached pic. It’s labeled yellow 20e on it. Does this mean that battery connection is bad? I see that wire on the battery terminal. Thanks
Hi again,
i found the problem it’s this wire labeled N20a which I have no idea what it means (attached pic) that goes to the main switch that doesn’t have power but it says 14AWG I tried to backtrack to the battery and I can’t see any wire that’s 14AWG all small ones are 12AWG. I tried using...
Thank you so much. I will do this today. It may be that the relay itself is not working so I will check the resistance on them as well. Thanks for the tips regarding where to put the multimeter. I have turned off the battery and the stair doesn’t work work so that’s confirmed. When I do turn off...
