i would consider what tom is saying. i also had this problem years ago. i had to plant 200 acres of corn when i was 15 years old and my father was not around to help. he put a transport truck on contract to haul fertilizer and the driver got sick so he had to drive it. i was planting by myself and the dam lights would come on and off all the time. finally i got ahold of him and said to come have a look and i had him ride on the back of the planter. he seen the clutch jumping and it was enough to plant some corn but not all of it. the whole planter would drop seed and then skip and then drop seed. you will see this around the country side some times. it is worse when you grease the planter first thing because it slips more. once the grease wears off then not as bad. i will never forget this and every year now i have him ride on the back to watch the chain drives and clutch work. you can send the monitor away and it may come back saying nothing wrong. pull your planter out of the shed and even in the drive way let it down and drive for a bit while someone watches to see if its skipping. loosing a few seeds of corn is nothing compaired to having skips all over the field. of course most of the time you wont know until its all come up and its to late. preventive maintanence is your best friend when its wet because its going to be another big ram if it ever dries up. good luck and let us know what you find out.
