Re: (ET) E-15 not getting out of first speed

["David Roden" <etpost drmm net>]

As I said before, I was never an expert on the E15 control scheme, and I 
junked it for an Alltrax controller years ago, so I've forgotten what 
little 
I knew.

That said, do I recall aright that the control card has a circuit that 
prevents entering higher speeds when the tractor is pulling a heavy load? 
Something about measuring voltage drop across something and inhibiting 
contactor 1A and or 2A until current falls.  Maybe this was to keep you 
from 
tipping over backward when climbing hills?  This is all kind of vague in 
my 
mind now, so I might be completely off base.  I glanced briefly through 
the 
Homeowner's Manual, but I didn't see anything about this.

If I'm remembering it right, though, that might be a place to look for the 
fauilt here.  Maybe someone else who knows the GE controller better will 
have more ideas about this.
