CONTROL VOLTAGE SAFETY SERVICE SWITCH “HOOD SWITCH”
7.1.
The VPL comes with a CONTROL VOLTAGE SAFETY SERVICE SWITCH (“hood switch”), a control voltage
disconnect (“switch”) that is located under the power head cover (“hood”) as shown in FIG. 7.1.
7.2.
This hood switch is a magnetic reed switch which works in conjunction with a magnet mounted to the inside of
the hood
on the angle. When the hood is installed on the VPL, the magnet is in proximity to the hood switch,
causing the hood switch contacts to close, enabling control voltage to the control box.
7.3.
When the hood is removed, the magnet is no longer in proximity to the switch, causing the switch to open,
disabling control voltage to the control box.
Disabling the hood switch keeps the VPL control circuit energized. The VPL is electrically active in this state
and will operate if the control buttons are pressed if the control circuit is inadvertently jumpered.
7.4
When servicing the VPL, the installer may find it necessary to enable the control circuit power with the hood off.
This can be accomplished as follows (FIG 7.2):
7.4.1
Unplug Connector “A” from Fuse Block Tab “F4”
7.4.2
Unplug Connector “C” from Connector “D”
7.4.3
Plug Connector “C” to Fuse Block Tab “F4”
Disabling the hood switch keeps the VPL control circuit energized. The VPL is electrically active in this state
and will operate if the control buttons are pressed if the control circuit is inadvertently jumpered.
Disable the hood switch at your own risk!
Always enable the hood switch electrical system when service is complete.
The hood switch does not remove battery power from the VPL motor circuit, only the control circuit.
