Moonman posted:You are on the right track-check the internal connections at the offending binding post or all of them.
An excerpt from this thread:
"Every TIU I have opened up has had at least one nut on the binding post not tight enough. To fix this you need to get some M4-.70 nuts. Unscrew the nut on the binding post and remove the external washer and wire. Replace the nut and tighten. Then replace the wire. Next the external washer. Then the nut."
That thread excerpt nailed it Carl. When I opened the case I expected the nut on the inside to be barely tight. But it felt tight enough when I checked by hand. Then I took a small wrench to tighten it. Wow, there were more than a few turns needed to get it tight to the level I thought it should be. I checked the other nuts for the other terminals. Same thing. Basically they were all loose to some extent. Now I have 18 volts and the terminal is cool to the touch during operation.
Without forum tech help my operation would have ground to a halt long ago.
Many thanks. S
