Jordan,
are you also running a vacuum canister?
I believe a stored source of vacuum may be a necessary item.

I'm planning on running one of these:

Pretty sure I've seen this truck, sure sounds familiar!

 

As far as the pump goes the elect pump has much press for the mb.
I took the stock pump out and just put a pickup tube in its place.
As far as the shutoff put a piece of line on the pump with it running and suck on it to see if it shuts off if so you have a leak. Brakes work great on mine with on problem sounds like you might have a vacuum leak or bad pump.As far as the lights need more info on that one.

I got the vacuum all figured out, I had the kill switch vacuum lines switched around.
