Re: (ET) Where oh Where to start?



Title: Where oh Where to start?
Do you hear *any* clicking (of contactors/relays)?
Try bypassing the disconnect switch by removing the front panel and shorting the contacts.
Make sure the brake switch is released, and the seat switch is engaged, to get drive motor
operation.
 
Check resistance from disconnect switch to the most positive battery  + post.
Check resistance on all battery interconnects... etc.

Hey - here's a dumb question - is the master battery disconnect set?  (the twist lever on the left of dash).  If disconnected, nothing will register on meter.  If "on", try wiggling the handle to see if it makes a difference in the meter reading.

Hi all:

I have a E12s that I am trying to revive.  It al appears to be intact. and other then a little surface rust the controllers appear to be ok.  that is the shifter moves, the speed select on the dash moves freely, the disengage lever latches, and the key turn.  However when I dropped in fully charged batteries, I get nothing on the meter and no power to light, pto, or drive motor.    The 3 fuses under the front hood are ok and I pressed the read breaker reset, but still nothing.   Looking for some ideas of where to start looking and how?
