Re: (ET) Got new switch, still odd.



             While you are in the neighborhood..........Look at the card edge connector VERY carefully. I learned this lesson over thirty years ago They split apart inside..That can cause many problems that you never thought were possible. I replaced mine with flying leads and two Molex® connectors.:)

Got the new switch today (thanks Jim/Electric Tractor!), the old switch is definitely shot since it doesn't go click and this one does. Swapped it in, wired it up the way I think it should be, powered up.

At first tractor did the keep running in 1 but then settled down. However now it does not go into reverse. So more troubleshooting, I'm wondering if maybe part of the problem is a bad secondary diode on card 4 as well. Will check that tomorrow with a diode tester.b
