I'm fitting a system from one van to another and after disconnecting everything whilst stripping out and I'm now a bit confused about wiring the pump to the controller.

There's 4 wires from the controller: 2 black and 2 red labelled 1,2,3,4

I'm guessing 1 and 2 to the battery and 3 and 4 to the pump?

Any help would be appreciated!

hiya
 u need to tell people what controller you have so somebody might be able to help.
failing that give the controller maker a call in the morning ,shouldn't take u long to sort it out.
best of luck

most controllers have it written under neath what wires are what

Sounds like a pure freedom set-up all mine were wired like this when I did a change over new ones from gardiners come with red black blue and brown.

Yes on mine 1 & 2 were battery 3 and 4 pump 1 & 3 being red.   I had to do it by trial and error make sure you fit in line fuse then wire in 1 & 2 direct to a batt and see if controller works if not try 3 and 4

If your not happy to do that get a circuit tester before wiring

It is a pure freedom controller Darran. It's the one with solenoid connections so I'll give that a try in the morning. Cheers

Ben thanks for that but PF re wire the controllers 

Brown and blue are replaced with more black and red wires,  and it's not fun when trying to wire up a pair of these plus the auto solenoid cut off giving you yet another 4 wires in red and black

Hi Shaun

You are correct that cables 1 & 2 connect to the battery. 1 is positive, 2 connects to the negative terminal.
Cables 3 & 4 to the pump. 3 being positive and 4 Negative. Is this controller a solenoid unit? with 4 additional cable coming out of the bottom of the control? I can email you a guide for this unit.

Ian,

One of mine is a solenoid unit which I no longer use to operate the water flow, I have just cut and taped up these wires is that ok ?

Should be no problem Darran with the cables taped they are insulated, and will not affect the control operation of running your pump.
