things to check

I had a slight problem, but I went through and did a simpe easy check.

#1. Try a new fully charged battery

#2. CHeck relays they are easy to break

#3. Make sure your using the correct rely, this year and last years relys are a lil differant.

#4. Check to make sure that there is no strain on the motor that might pull it out of center, in other word check for tire wobble

#5. Check fuses and Breakers, no need to get this far and not chech those

#6. Check for any and all drops in Voltage, Amperage, or excesive Ohms

#7. if you've gotten this far its gotta be in the motors , I would have to say that the brushs might have some metal flakes in them, thats a comon problem for some motors, so try to blow it out with compressed air, but dont alow the armature to spinn as you clean it!

Hope this helps It may not but ohh well I tried. Also it really helps if you can test all of your parts individualy to test what works and what doesnt. Many thing can go wrong in a system, but a part by itself will either work, or die.
