here's a schematic~

well it's a start anyways...nothing about the dumper motor, which I've heard tales of needing Two batteries and NOT the 1/0 cable but the 0/0 cable (beefier) and independent completely of the above schematic...kind of like brain surgery of your configuration...anyways independent....it's own gig with a powerful electric motor and hand operated levers.....this is what I've seen...dumpers ARE a big deal...need the Amperage to make it all happen and the schematic above does not deal with the F450 dump motor....sad, will have to dig deeper on this~

okay ran across this schematic from a 1988 F450....will see if the pertinent info on the dump mechanism exists here~

...as I suspected the dump area is it's own gig and has not anything to do with the actual vehicle~ the manufacturer of the dump mechanism must have some documentation I mean if it's a "DAKE" should be able to look it up~

do you have the motor and it's controller already?, just looking for the tinkertoy solution? we've just got to look at the Maker of this equipment to point you to what needs to be done here~

that appears to be an electric controller supplier...now if we can just find which equipment....will try to research some on this~ gotta play appliance repairman and put my whirlpool dryer together....all 26 screws including that one that fell inside with my wrench....my work is cut out for me....outside towels are scratchy~
