Thanks for taking a minute...

I have not seen unit run, but it is in fine overall shape - 96 year old owner needed to get it out of garage! Not a single splice in the entire unit.... that being said - do not know any more history.

I have checked each microswitch (1 pedal, 2 directional) by disconnecting and ohming them as well as hooking them up and checking at the far end of each connection.... all seem fine. I bypassed the reed switch in the charger plug: no change.

Last night I went and sequentially checked continuity on EVERY wire run... no problems found.

I am suspecting the controller - I can't ever get it to throw a negative to the solenoid (blue wire from 9pin to right-hand small post). But even if I jumper the solenoid and fire it off, I still get no buzzer or motor action.

Any ideas?
