RE: (ET) Motor Control Probem on by C-185/E-20

To all,

Thanks for all your help.  But it appears that the gremlin has left the 
tractor... I repeat the gremlin has left the tractor.  Got home on 
Saturday afternoon and was putting some tools away in the shed.  Took a 
chance, jumped in the seat, turned the key, hit the pedal and whirrrrr!  
The beast is back.  I have no  idea what went wrong (or right) but my 
C-185 is now working great in forward and reverse.  Don't you just hate 
spurious occurrences!

Bob

I went out to use my tractor last evening and couldn't go!  Here's the 
symptoms;

1.      Main power switch engaged and working.
2.      Key in the on position, fuel level gage indicating full.
3.      Depress foot switch and nothing but a click from a solenoid just 
front of the foot well area.
4.      Opened cover and can manually override relays to operate motor.
5.      When switched to reverse, the RED led reverse indicator light is 
on.  When I depress the foot pedal it goes out.  I can manually override 
at the relay to make it work.
6.      When I try to engage the PTO switch I get no power at the plug 
(mower deck or welder)
7.      Front lift works fine but is wired independently from main motor 
control circuitry.

Any ideas?
