Hi all. Just picked up a cheap PX3 electric shutter to replace my hail damaged one on a PX2 (non motorised)
Just wondering if anyone has details on the configuration for the limit switch wiring, have figured out the open and close, but haven’t sussed out the limit switches yet. Even a wiring diagram would be a big help. Any help us greatly appreciated !!! Thanks legends

It looks like it's a power tonneau. Looks pretty cool.
yeah it is a powered tonneau. Comes standard on the 2019 onwards models. Mine was a late 2017 fo only had manual pull out tonneau. Problem is no wiring harness in my truck to connect to.

I don't know the system, but I would assume the harness would be a simple. Power, ground, power to open, power to close, with wires for auto stop switches on open and close.

I would find ground, and start adding 12v to each of the power wires to see what they did.Then add in a 3 Position automatic reset switch to get it to open and close. Creating your own harness isn't that hard, just time consuming and tedious.

GODDAMNIT! There is literally ZERO reason Ford couldn't do this here in the states. The Aussies get all the cool stuff:
  • Wild Tracks
  • Bed Shutters
  • The Beegees
  • Mad Max
  • Nicole Kidman
AGGGGGH! All we get are open beds and the Kardasians.
