I use the diodes every time I drive but I switch them when my engine is at about 85C (if that happen

) initially i was using 5 diodes but when my engine is cold my ewp system make it turn on only 6v and 5 diodes lower the voltage from 6v to 3.5v-2.5v and it was to low for the pump. by just removing 1 diodes the voltage was lowered to 3.2v-4v and i think thats the minimun to make it turn
