    Again another EESS burnt up. Same failure as last time. I opened the two week old control box to find the burnt traces. It goes from Pin E of the box to a relay then from the relay to Pin I. Pin E is battery voltage via the starter. Pin I goes to the solenoid. I have found that the relay...

    EESS PCB replacement for the HMMWV ?

    Our 1987 M998 with Nartron S3 box has been starting and running fine. Two days ago, when we tried to start it, the wait light just blinks and no start.
