I noticed the one I got from a mustang kit,had the variable control assy missing,wires were soldered together and capped.I called Kenne bell and was told some of them were done that way from the factory,not adjustable from cockpit.

You do not want to bypass the pressure switch and run the higher votage (17.5Volts wires shorted) all the time, that will shorten your pump life. You do want to get a switch that closes the contacts at above 2-3lbs.

Again, be clear on what switch your talking about, as there are two. Once is a boost pressure switch, which increase the voltage based on positive pressure. The other switch tells it how much voltage to increase it by. That switch can be on max all the time so it is always 17v.

I'll call Kenne Bell tomorrow to either buy switches or the whole new BAP.
