The SABER Electronic Dump Valve Fitting Instructions
Fitting the Saber Electronic Dump Valve could'nt be easier. All it requires is some simple knowledge and a few minutes of your valuable cruising time.
1) First fit the SABER-EDV unit in as cool/dry a place as possible. A good location we recommend is the scuttle panel between the screen and the engine bay, the front inner wing or similarly cool/dry place.
2) The compression driver box supplied needs to be fitted as close to the front of the car as possible i.e. behind/under the front bumper or behind the headlights.
3) Fit the compression driver box with the cone facing sideways or facing down to stop water getting into the box. THIS COMPRESSION DRIVER UNIT IS NOT WATERPROOF!
4) Connect the speaker wires on the compression driver to the speaker wires on the SABER-EDV unit using the two butt connectors supplied.
5) The micro switch needs to be mounted to the universal mounting bracket using the nuts and bolts supplied.
6) Mount the bracket near to the throttle so that the micro switch ONLY makes contact on FULL throttle.
(This can be done at the throttle pedal inside the car or at the throttle body housing inside the engine bay see right)  Throttle Cable unpressed |  Throttle Cable pressed |
 Throttle Pedal unpressed |  Throttle Pedal pressed |
NOTE: At no other time should the micro switch make contact except for on full throttle. As you release the throttle, connection is made and your SABER-EDV will sound. This may involve cutting and bending the bracket as necessary to mount the switch in a suitable position. WARNING: CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THIS FITMENT DOES NOT INTERFERE OR IMPEDE WITH THE THROTTLE OPERATION IN ANYWAY, IF IN DOUBT CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC TO DO THIS FOR YOU.
Wiring Instructions 1. Connect the wires as shown in FIG B, it is vital that the connections are correct otherwise your system may fail to operate.
2. The 12volt supply can either be connected directly to the battery or it may be fitted via the ignition switch.
3. Ensure that a good earth point is used for both the SABER-EDV unit and the micro switch otherwise the unit will fail to operate.
4. Recheck your installation ensuring that the vehicles throttle operates correctly without interference, if you are satisfied that your installation is correct fit the 10amp fuse supplied.
5. Your installation is now complete.
PLEASE NOTE: THE SABER-EDV IS DESIGNED TO OPERATE JUST LIKE A REAL DUMP VALVE, MEANING ITS ONLY WHEN YOU RELEASE FROM FULL THROTTLE THAT YOUR SABER-EDV SHOULD SOUND. IF YOUR SABER-EDV SOUNDS AT ANY OTHER TIME OTHER THAN WHEN THE THROTTLE IS RELEASED THEN IT IS WIRED/FITTED INCORRECTLY.
WARNING: HIGH OUTPUT SPEAKER UNIT. DO NOT OPERATE WITHIN 10FT OF OPEN EAR AS THIS CAN CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE!
