Try swaping relays around, possible the tips of K3 are oxidized causing the low B+ voltage. But the problem is that you are not getting B+ at the trac and drive amps when K3 is energized/on. Power goes through Fuse 5 on the relay card, to K3 when it is on/energied and to the trac and lift amps terminal 1 B+, which wakes the amps up. Veryify you have 36volts/battery voltage across fuse 5 on the relay card, with everything connected and the unit powered up, but you should since fuse 5 also powers the key switch.
If their was a short in one of the amps in the B + cicruit it should be blowing fuse 5, they show a thermistor in the wiring diagram on a lot of cicruits on the relay card, but none on the B+ circuit to the trac and lift amps, otherwise i would say that is why you are not getting full power at the amps. Their is still a issue with the relay card, you could try making a small jumper with a 10-15 amp fuse direct from the battery to the B+ terminal at the lift and trac amps, with the unit key'd up the leds, should light up on the amps. Look very closely at the K3 relay/terminals on the relay card/inspect the b + wires between the relay card and the amps.

Fact of the week
Sourdough bread contains Lactobacillus reuteri, a probiotic bacteria. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, these bacteria can travel from the mother's colon to her breast tissue and be passed to the infant through breast milk. It offers various health benefits, including potential protection against breast cancer.
