When my box is on and I am accelerating it feels like the box is shutting off and on(the lights on the box stay on). It seems like something is shorting out because the Edge Box power keeps going off and on. Has anybody had this problem or have any suggestions on how to correct it? I checked all the wires and plug connectors and everything seems to be fine.

i had the same problem.... it kind of for a lack of better words "studders" just not real fast. we ended up sending it back to Edge and they replaced it.... i hope this helps.... check also on the box under the hood on one of the sides there are some green LED's that'll be randomly blinking if the correct pump wire is tapped.... there should be a better explanation in the installation/troubleshooting manual than that....

Try running the power wire on the Edge straight to the battery

When the box is off it runs fine, Like a stock Dodge. I only have one box inside the truck with the wires going out to the plugs.

No i did not try that yet. I will tomorrow. Oh and when you trun the key on The box does not come on , you have to trun the key off then back on. Some time i have to do that 1 or 2 times.
