      I spent some time today going over the schematic and manual. I’m hoping it’s just sensors but I really need to get back in front of it to figure it out. They told me I had another call so I wanted to get out out of there then canceled it after I rushed out. Go figure.

If you're that clueless get somebody who knows something lol.

    I am surprised that company allowed such shoddy work. When I did work for them, everything was done right, neat, and clean. No wires were left dangling, unplugged or anything like what you saw in those units. Sometimes my travel time would be 5 times what I was on the job. And they had no problems with my charges. Maybe they are getting lax on their maintenance.
