1948 Ford 8N 12 volt neg ground. With loader.
After a considerable amount of experimenting I have an EPS unit installed on the tractor. Have the following problem. The battery is not a real expensive one, Walmart cheepo I think.Battery has full charge and has not failed once in two years.
1. Motor off, wired per instructions and power steering is great. Side to side with two fingers.
2. Start motor, still wired per instructions and nothing. It"s like before w/o the EPS.
3. Turn off the motor and I have EPS again.
Alternator problem?
4. unhook belt on alt. EPS works with motor off, but loses EPS once I start the motor.
5. Added the battery in my pick-up and the problem is the same.
Any suggestions would be great.
