>two microswitches that control the shut off of air to the step

[Jon]

Could someone explain to me in simple terms how do these micro
switches work? Both of these switches when push in cut out the power
to wherever? I think (I'm I write?)

Now what I don't understand is when the steeps are in the out
position and when I close the door the steeps just stay out. I
changed out the push button switch on the door and I made sure the
toggle switch that in that general area is in the up position and the
light are on in the steep well and the fluorescent light above is on.
But the steeps still stay in the open position.

I really don't understand how these two micro switches work in
conjunction with the action of the steeps being out? I can see how
they would stop the travel of the steeps in the close position but
not in the open.

Is there away to test these two micro switches? I wish I had a
blueprint of this circuit on the steeps as its like a rubik's cube to
me.

Well anyway I have by passed whatever is wrong and can operated the
steps by using a short piece of electrical wire and touch each wire
that goes into the solenoid operated air direction vlv. They work
great then.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Jon

Oh yes one more question and that is? Should the entrance light stay
on when the door is open and turn oft when it closed? This also does
not happen now and their in lays the problem I think.
