Re: (ET) E12M won't go + ghost voltage?
Jack,
Almost all my wiring looks original—with the exception of the 2 wires to
the brake switch. Only see one wire just cut off.
I did find CB-1 in the manual, but don’t remember where it is on the
tractor. Figured someone could save me some hunting. :-)
Thanks
Thon
