i paid more attention to when the code shows up it comes up in the middle of the second self check. i rechecked traction motor with the brake released. Did not see the motor kick. i also tried unhooking motor leads and hooking leads to another motor in another unit. i got code 26 while hooked to the other traction motor. i spoke to a Raymond tech they said it could be in the tractor manager card. they also said the traction motor could have a short but not findable. which i would think you would be able to find a short in the motor. i can't find a short with a multi meter.
