Thanks Ted. My ground and signal wires are crossed from what you indicated. I'll mull over whether I can try crossing them without burning something up. Should be ok at 5 volts I think.

AL had me set the calibration at one to give me one gallon per pulse so I could see it working while jumping across, which it did. That wouldn't tell me if those two were crossed however. Normal is 70 700/10=70 .


"The pin across from the notch (6 O'clock) is signal. This is pin that changes from 0 to 5 volts as the turbine turns.
You can remove the sensor and spin the turbine across it. This should produce action in either a Raven system or Ag Leader. "

As an update, I'm getting 5 volts on both the power and signal side, whether the master switch is on or off. Not surprisingly spinning the turbine didn't work, as it's hot all the time. I'll have to call AL to see why this should be so. Hard to track down when the problems keep shifting. It seemed to jump across fine to the Insight earlier.
