I have wired a light into the wiring to tell me when the Solenoid is on.

This tells me 2 things:
  If the light is on the pressure switch is working.
  If the oil gauge increases in pressure the Accusump is pre oiling the engine.

 

The other benefit is to monitor if an anytime the Accusump is feeding oil to the engine. If the light remains on for anymore than 30 to 40secs it might be time to shut down the engine as the oil pump is not recovering pressure and there is possibly a major problem.

 

Canton Accusump Kits contain Peter Paul Electronics Solenoid Valves P/N: 827X 80Series Valve.
  These valves can suffer from 2 known problems. Weak spring stopping the valve to open when
  full of oil and diaphragm miss alignment when assembled.

Fitted the Goyen Valve.
I plumbed in the Solenoid Valve and so far it works a dream. I especially like turning on the ignition and as the fuel pump primes the oil gauge shows 40+ psi as the oil is pushed into the engine... then hit the key and it instantly starts to prime the accusump again.
