I wired up my switchbox and valves today. The rear works fine, but when I went to pop up the front, Air just came shooting out of the dump!  Does this mean its wired wrong? If so why is air getting throught the fill valve and going through the dump? The fill should still be closed.
 
I have the Fill mounted to the tank, then a T fitting ,and a dump on one end and Air line on the other end. If that helps.  Thanks for the help!

sounds to me like the fill and dump are both energizing at the same time. Unwire the dump valves and see if that stops it . That will tell you if that is whats happening. Good luck JR

i think your switch box is wired wrong hand a few that would short out different valves in different system had to rebuild the valves to get them to work and replace wire and switches in a new box
