Re: (ET) PTO and low pack voltage

[RJ Kanary <rjkanary consolidated net>]

      There is no circuit that does that. It's just the way it is. If 
voltage is below pull-in or hold- in values, it just plain won't 
work.You might start taking apart and cleaning connections. Every 
corroded connection is a voltage drop.
