Re: (ET) tractor no worky
Mike,
Have you checked your fuse holder? When you turn the key switch to On, I'd the fuel gauge meter drops at all, I would replace it. Also, I would clean all of those connections and maybe even squeeze the clamps a bit with pliers. Seems like a weak connection somewhere.

I just replaced my batteries in my E15, since I was down to about 15-20
minutes of mowing time. With the new batteries, I pushed the speed lever
forward, and just got a bunch of clicking. I checked the forward/reverse
relay, and it looks like it's blown - so I replaced it with another (I
have lots of those onhand). Now, when I move the speed switch to the left
to put it in reverse, the new relay just makes a constant clicking - as if
it's rapidly switching back and forth or something. When I try to get the
tractor to move (forward or reverse), I still just get that clicking, and
no motion.
Any ideas?
On a related note - is the Alltrax the only option for upgrading
to a PWM controller?
Thanks,
Mike
