Hello, Does anybody here know if it is possible to get a service manual for a 1997 PbA Solectria force? Does such a thing even exist? I'm getting ready to...
Nick, I'm a great believer in having good documentation. I have the following manuals that I can copy for you if you wish: * Service Manual 1995/1996 Solectria...
I know I don't know much about the 12 volt systems in these cars, but I've run into a problem. A few months ago I noticed my Dome light stopped working. I...
... The voltage at the dome light assembly is 11.8 volts? ... Not if it's an ordinary incandescent, no. It's more likely you have an open circuit somewhere, I...
Stephen, You might want to check the following topic over at our E-10 forum: http://portev.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=59 The subject of the DC-DC output voltage...
Sounds like they all are adjustable with the proper resistor at least the ones in the E-10s. Are the Force ones the same? Did you change yours? My NiCD car...
It appears that the dome light has "lost" its ground connection (to the car frame). Check the voltage on the hot side of the dome light. Ensure that the meter...
The dome light is working again. I'm fairly confident that it was a loose connector. This connector is down near the passenger's right foot tucked behind a...
Hi Stephen, My dome light never did not work when I first got my 99 Force and that bugged me. I checked all fuses and removed the dome fixture and tested the...

Sounds like the same connector I found earlier this morning. Wish I had gotten your message before I spent all that time under the dash. Stephen Taylor Danny...
My Solectria Sunrise consistently experiences this problem of resetting AH Counter and I have one Force that has done it a couple of times over a 2 and half...
About the Ah gauge resetting. My pack had a terminal that was loose. I found this out under a very heavy draw on the freeway. Doing 60 and going up a hill...
My Ah gauge has been working fine for a year. Now after I put that in the prior email I went to drive it and the gauge is not working at all. No green or red...
Of course unplugging your little red disconnect in the front should reset it to zero. Maybe it will clear the problem too. Stephen theoldcars@... wrote: ...
Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the anderson connector for the main power supply, the red anderson connector by the DC to DC converter and...
Don, I'm just curious -- Was there a split lockwasher on that connection? I check my connections every now and then but haven't ever seen one work loose with...
I used to have a computer that would blow up like clockwork -- Smoke, loud snapping sounds, the whole works. Once it had been working for 9 months and I said...
Hello Tom Mine have the split lock washers also. Lead is a very soft metal and under pressure and over a period of time it moves. Don I In a message dated...
I did everything Jay said and it did remove the 2.57 number from the gauge. The gauge reads 00.00 and the red and green lights still do not work. When driving...
Sorry about the OT but that put me in mind of an old Radio Shack AT compatible computer I had. I had a failure and they replaced the mother board under the...
Don, Do you have the service manual? Go through and check all the connection that are mentioned on page 21 on the proceedure for removing the unit and the...

... Interesting. In railroading, where diesel-electric propulsion has long been the norm, someone has recently developed a switching locomotive called the...
One option you might consider is attaching a trailer to your Force with additional batteries. I read somewhere that a Force so equipped once made it from New...
That all may well be true, but until you get stuck with a dead battery (batteries are the weak link) , having a backup is invaluable. Absolutely emissions are...
To All Thank you for the support. The gauge however followed Mike's email about everyone thinking about it. The next day it started working and has been...
