There are several reed-relays that click.  I have had one fail and could 
'check' it (carefully) by pulling the 'fire-wall' loose at the top, 
leaning it toward the batteries, and push the reed relay down to see if 
the motor turns.  Of course, you need to put it in neutral and put a brick 
on the seat.  One reed-relay was bad, the contactor was good.

Is there an easy way to check out the 'contactors' or do I have to go
through the whole trouble- shooting procedure in the manual?
The E12 was rolling along just fine - and stopped. Everything stills clicks
like before, but when I push the lever forward or back - nothing.
Also, how much is a new contactor or can they be repaired?
Thanks.
