There is no relay for this. The black box just has a few resistors in it AFAIK. The way I have bypassed the empty tank pump shutoff feature is at the LED panel. Remove the kitchen drawer to get to the connector and then remove the led panel. There are 5 wires to the panel. +12 volts comes in on the Orange wire +12 goes back out to the Pump on the Yellow wire. Disconnect the Yellow wire from the LED panel and connect it to the Orange wire. Then the pump will have 12 volts available whenever the panel does. I just unsoldered the Yellow wire from the panel and resoldered it to the same place as the Orange one. With the newer panels the factory does it at the connector and connects a shortened yellow wire to the orange wire right there. In either case be sure that no exposed bare wire can short to any metal parts. Mark Steve Selin wrote: > > Exactly the problem. The LED panel does not even read the correct water > level.
