Hey all,
Checked the operation of the flap positioning system tonight. Extend works fine, but retract does not work. You can hear the relay clicking, but the flaps do not retract. Connecting power directly to the flap motor drives the flaps in the required direction. Flap positioner is the standard provided by vans. Any clues?
cheers,
Ron

Ron,
The FPS is controlled by three inputs of power. There is constant power to the box, and then your switch provides power to two individual inputs, up and down. You are not wired that way unless of course you have a defective unit as Deem's pointed out prior. So the unit get a ground, flap power, switched power up and switched power down.

If you ever hooked up the power backwards on the FPS, it burns out one
side of the electronics. It will work one way, but not the other.
Ask me how I know.... I got so used to hooking up directly to the motor
then swapping the leads to run it backwards, but you can't do that once
the FPS is installed.

Yup! You have a wiring error. Most likely at the relay contacts.
