Thanks for your help Randall. I started running through Dan Masters
diagnostics and I'm not getting full voltage to the green wire at the
switch. I think I'll take the motor out and make sure its not a
mechanical problem before I go crazy looking for an electrical glitch.
As always, your help is very much appreciated! John
