    if all the vacuum hoses are tip top then it sounds like the pump itself is on its way out. sometimes you can strip and repair

    Had the pump out and found the two short hoses with springs inside in the pump were a loose fit replaced now runs a lot shorter on locking with no issues at all but still running after unlocking sometimes plugged off at pump outlet still doing it
    is there something like contact points inside the pump motor did see screws holding it together so can be opened.

    yeah you can split them down there will be some kind of internal pressure switch I imagine which cuts the pump

    All sorted I hope now locks in the blink of an eye unlock about a second found and shuts down every time one of the hoses I replace had come off so put a smaller dia one in all now looks good....for now.
    Do these pumps suck and blow [:D]
