They are unhooked so I can shut it off manually.

New orings and cleaned.

They function fine without the cables.

I believe the levers may be in the wrong position. That's what I need to determine I believe.

Or maybe it's completely the wrong valve, but thus far it seems right.

But I still don't get the full slide of the cables on on position, this may be normal.

I don't understand what the question is either.

Looking for some detailed info on operation. I'll shoot a video tomorrow that will explain the problem more.
