Troubleshooting
For all electrical problems, the use of the quick refer-
ence troubleshooting method is recommended. Using
the Diagnostic ACE
TM
Display allows you to quickly find
the source of the electrical problem.
For inter
mittent electrical problems, which are not
repeatable, use of the Data Log System is recom-
mended. The data log system records the actual state
of machine inputs and outputs at the time of malfunction.
Your Toro Distributor can then isolate the cause of the
electrical problem.
