Re: (ET) trouble...she no go



There's a GOOD reason for that. E-12 S & E-15 AA to GA don't HAVE an RTN relay.  The RTN functions are contained in the silicon skulduggery on Card #1.

What is confusing me a bit is the RTN relay, which is on the schematic for the E12 [3a-c on pg 3a-6] and does not seem to exist on my machine, or in some other manuals

 p {margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;}    It looks like the switch is in series with the seat switch, so when open it stops all power, IOW the f/r relay doesn't click. So I don't think that is it, unless I am missing something

If it was working prior to doing brake work I would check the brake safety micro-switch.  Sounds like it is "on", meaning that the tractor will not drive.
 
Just my thought.

So i replaced the fwd/rev relay and it ran just fine, plenty of battery, no
worries, just no brakes.

fixed the brakes [note, stupid placement of caliper, 1/2 inch different and it
would be a 2 minute job] 

Now she no go. Fwd rev relay clicks back and forth, but no power drain. PTO
lights lift all work

Have manuals but haven't deciphered the troubleshooting diagrams. Part of
the problem is lack of labeling on the machine 

jumped out the brake and seat switch to test. no dice

hints welcome................
