make sure your seat switch circuit is hooked up

if the seat switch is not made the fork light on the dash will blink on and off and no hydraulic functions will work. The connector for this should be located somewhere on the right side rear engine compartment, usually around the hood hinge area. Just follow the wiring from the seat down to the harness , there should be a 3wire flat plug in the harness back there. :o)

good luck...
