Those with Electric Cut Outs plz read...
ok the DMH electric cut out finally went in, after ALOT of sweat, heat, cussing and what not .. and then, to top it all, the damn motor [ butterfly didn't open ] didn't work !!! aaaaaaaaaah
When I press the button, I do hear a noise, similar to one when the butterfly opens/closes, but nothing really happens .. Is the motor defective or something else screwed up ?
It's wired to the 12v cigarette lighter connector...
Now DMH does say to heat cycle the cut-out before working it.. i.e. start the car, let it warm up and then cool down before using the cut-out [ this is only the first time after the install.. ] .. and we did follow that routine...
I just want some feedback from electric cut-out owners or people who'd know about this before I call and ask for a replacement...
Plz post!!...
Thanks
Rahul

Sorry to hear your having problems, i would just call DMH and give them a chance to point you in the right direction. I've got the dual cutouts and haven't had a single problem. I wired them up just like you did, and they have worked spot on every time.
