remove and clean the battery connections at the battery and the frame. you have a bad connection. the bad connection could be at the maxi fuse, behind the fuse box. the battery may not have a full charge in it. let us know!

We plan to meet next week to talk about planning a strategy session to discuss the next step towards forming a consensus to start the development of the rough draft for the implementation of our intention to develop a plan.
