The Rule float switch being replaced here has two gray wires going to two red wires.

There is one other red and a black wire apparently terminating next to them.

The provided instructions do not seem to cover this install. Or I just need some clarification.

Also, the Rule says it’s a 20 amp. The Water Witch is a 10 amp. Did I get the incorrect switch?

Thanks!

Thanks. That is the image that I have in the instructions above. Maybe it’s that I have two red wires coming in instead of one black and one red

Understood that part. The trick is that only YOU can figure out where those two red wires are coming from and are connected to. Anyone who says otherwise...really...


Good luck.
