This one has been a real head scratcher in the shop.
The F&R Contactors will not engage on their own.
If we give them a little nudge through the access hole, the snap right on.
This issue has continued despite replacing the entire Contactor assemblies F&R and accelerator.
The EV100 checks out as does the diodes and the osc card.
Voltages are correct throughout and the capacitor checks out good as well using the old Clark "handyman" component tester.
I realize this is an antiquated system but if anyone has some helpful thoughts, we would be grateful!

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
