Checked, cleaned and adjusted the WI contact again. They look good. Still not working unfortunately.

Mark,
Since I can't see them--is the left "finger" getting onto the "white" (insulated) portion when the solenoid is "at rest".
Is it then getting to the gold part when solenoid is energized ?
What is the WI voltage reading ?
Are you 100% sure, it picks-up--- EVERY--- selection when a D cell is used, to change torrid states ?

Hi Ron,

I can't believe I actually found the problem! I changed the new .068 capacitor in the Write in circuit and now it is working perfectly. I can't believe the new cap I put in was bad. Thank you so much for all your help and time ! It is much appreciated !

Mark
