300ma or 300milliseconds? 300ma is not enough juice to run the pump an 300milliseconds in not long enough to unlock all the actuators. On my 300Sd it took 2-3 seconds to lock/unlock all the elements.

The kit I bought from AZ had a dip switch to select 300ms or 3 seconds. You may want to check yours to see if there is a similar setting.

The wiring diagram above will help with the 300ma problem.
