RE: (ET) one speed, no power E20



When is the 4th relay, the "FW" relay supposed to kick in?  It never does.
Also, it is off by default, correct?  The wires to it go underneath and
center, not top and center, correct? (wires 40 and 49)  I do have a
downloaded schematic, which I can barely read, as a result of my skill set
in electronics.  Though that continues to improve....  

Relays; I will test all for alignment when I get home.

I am working on the wires, but they all appear to be connected.  There is
not a lot of space up under the hood, so it is tedious.  

I am pretty sure the board (#4) is ok.  It looks almost new.  Someone with
better skills then me will have to meter it, if all else fails.

(I knew when I posted my first request for help this would turn into 
another
Alltrax debate.  That's why I mentioned in the first post that I had 
already
done an Alltrax conversion.  That's cool, I love to hear the various
opinions.)   

Chris, thanks for taking the time to help me figure out my problem!!

Also, how do I contact Howard? (unrelated)

If it worked perfectly last summer then it is probably a simple loose 
wire. Do you have the Elec-trak wiring manual? I've got it at home, but 
it would probably be better for you to just get a copy.

It's probably not a mis-aligned relay however you might want to put it 
in neutral and touch the relay contacts with a pencil while in speed 4 
to see if they are all properly closed.
