Tracy, Is it possible that Bernie unknowing got  some  "Make before Break" type switches?  That would apply the 12V to the other side of the switch before "Breaking" the connection to the 12V side and grounding the cold start switch.  Just a thought - would be fairly easy to check out with a volt/ohm meter.  Ed A

Ed, this is entirely possible that I got such switches. Do you think you can measure the voltage over on the ground side with a digital volt meter if you slowly move the switch. We tried it this morning and could never measure more than 5 volts as we went from run to disable. We were not trying to move switch slowly. I sent Tracy the 2nd box back.

Tracy, it should arrive to Bell tomorrow. I shipped the whole box to protect the boards, etc. I need the back part to come back with whichever controller you return since it has my mounting nutplates.

Bernie, in frustration mode again!
