Greetings All!
I'm writing this in the guide section for those who attempt to complete this quest and in the future may search the game guides for some assistance.
My group completed the quest last night and made Shadowfire's third known jetpack.
There are some great guides out there by Snowy'V and Wengel, and an incredible map by Leemeg, so I'm not gonna go into details.
But one thing they did not have in those guides at the time I write this which is critical to success is that when water pressure is restored to the bunker you receive a system message "Water Pressure Has Been Restored".
I studied the 4 terminals, and saw absolutely nothin that represented anything turning from "red" to "green" indicating which switch was on - the left side panel was always on "green". In addition, you cannot examine the terminal to see if it is on. So the only way to tell is to hit the switch, and this gets really confusing. Additionally, it is not a rumor that there is a pattern. The foreman straight up tells you that when you hit one terminal on,it willturn another off, and with all the chaos going on, it gets a little nerve recking.
The first time I thought I had them we went all the way down to the bottom of the mines back to the foreman only to be told they wern't set. Had to go all the way back up.
The second time around I ended up playing with just3 terminals trying to see what type of pattern occured - at that pointI was getting so frustrated I wasn't even at the 4th term yet. Then, to my amazement I got the message that we were good to go.
So I can confirm there is a random pattern, and I believe it's different for everyone.
Advice: Just keep runnin around flickin the switches until you get the system message that water pressure has been restored. If I would have know there was a "success" message, I would not have wasted the precious time going back and forth.
Good luck,

There are lamps across from the terminal on the floor (next to the sunked pit in the middle) that turn from red to green to indictae on or off. They're very easily missed in the chaos - I didn't see them till halfway through. But they are there and they change color to indicate on or off. When you hit a switch, it is randomly set in the beginning which switches it will affect - different for everyone, but you can tell with the lamps if somthing is on or off.
