If the AG-NAV Guia Lite does not advance with the spray micro switch after reaching point A and point B, check the remote switch wiring. If installed into the pistol grip, the wires may need to be cut and reconnected as shown in the installation drawing. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly installed.
