Re: (ET) Maiden voyage



Excellent!

On the lift (as in most things electrical) 90% of the time it's contacts. In particular, the fuse holder gets corroded around the rivets and you get a poor connection. The lift motors also do go bad. See the archives for beaucoup info on that!

After weighing everyone's helpful advice, I hit the local auto parts store
and came back armed with 4 new cables and 4 crimp on end connectors.
Everything went smoothly, I charged her up, and actually mowed about 1/2
acre this afternoon.  Wow! What a cool machine.  The only thing not 
working,
so far as I can tell, is the "lift" mechanism.  When I hit the switch, I
hear nothing at all--so I'll start looking through the folders of
manuals/diagrams that came with the machines and start tinkering.  Thanks
again for all the advice,
