code 215 after drive unit replaced

I replaced a drive/motor assembly with an assy. from another unit. Now when I go thru startup I get a wrench and a code 215 (No turn to left) The drive steers about 10 degrees to right. Normally the drive moves right to left then back to index. I readjusted to encoder 2 to index. Swapped out the steer control module, replaced the K5 relay and even put in a good encoder. No help. With the encoder unplugged the drive vibrates right to left as normal but then codes a 208. Is there anything that can cause this just by replacing the drive motor and lower unit?? Even swapped out relays on distribution card. Anyhelp will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ed Bowen 443-463-0555

Found the problem. The front wheel must be on the ground and bare weight in order for the test to run complete.
