I have a 2001 ranger 520vx that I bought in 2002. The guy I bought it from said it came with an automatic bilge pump. Well, my pumps never came on automatically but I never saw it as a big deal. I would just manually activate both pumps periodically to empty the bilge. But now the auto pump is blowing fuses so I am going to replace it. First of all, there is a 2 wire connector going from the motor to the wiring harness back to the console. Correct me if I am wrong but wouldn't it have to have a direct connection to a battery? Second, I see nothing that would activate the unit when water filled the bilge. I expected to see a float switch but it looks exactly like the manual pump. So I am thinking it was never capable of auto function. When I buy a new one with the auto feature, does it come with 2 sets of wires? One to go to the manual switch at the console and one to go directly to the battery?
