RE: (ET) Re: pack not isolated from frame??



Do you have a horn?  Often, these ground to frame.  Other 'extras' in a 
similar manner.

My wiring and cables looked pretty good and I had taken special care to 
tie 
them off to the frame away from the pulley.  I'll check them thoroughly 
again 
to be sure.  

Now if it the wire/cable is fine what/how to do/determine the 
contactor/motor 
resistors ???

thanks much,
