2010 Supra 24v Launch Ballast issues

[bobdog12]

Have a question about filling the ballast on a new to me 2010 24v launch. When i try to fill the front bag the right rear ballast fills instead. It does appear the center bag fill ever so slowly but the right ballast starts to release over flow so i always turn the center switch off in fear that i might damage something.

The left and right bags do fill properly when the respective switches are flipped. I only have issues when trying to fill the center bag. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

That's weird. I think 2010 has the newer style ballast. Do you have the sprinkler valve ballast system, or individual pumps?

I"m not sure what kind of pumps i have. What do i look for?

Trace your pipes to determine their origination. Mine are located in the rear port storage locker behind a small wall held in place by 4 screws.

I had the same thing happen on mine. If it's the same it's a super easy fix. In from of each valve going to ballast bag there is a switch to open or close it. My rear left had got opened which meant anytime I turned on a bag it would fill that one to. I turned that little switch to closed and it fixed my issue. Is your boat a vdrive or center console.

Sprinkler Valves look like this:

The new style pumps, Johnson or Jabsco, look like this:

ok, i'm an idiot. Where would one find the valve with? Checked the ballast box and tried to trace the ballast line back but could not find any switch.

I found two valves, not three. Doesn't each ballast have a valve?
