I have a 1500 gph rule Bilge Pump and want to wire a rule automatic float switch to it.  Anyone have a diagram or pointers?  I am also going to wire a 2nd backup bilge but probably not to the float. Will keep that on accessory. Thanks

The polarity of the pump must be correct, there is no polarity in a float switch.

Very nice.. thanks for the quick response .  Bilge pump was wired up on my boat correctly but when I got to cleaning out the bilge area I found the automatic switch went nowhere. Cleaned it up and going to rewire it and then install a backup.

Are you saying that the switch's wires were not hooked up to anything and laying loose?

All you have to do is take either the positive/negative wire from the pump, cut that one wire and connect one wire from the switch to one of them and the other wire from the switch to the remaining wire. Also be aware if a switch is already installed on the pump you are going to make automatic.
