Yep, electrical wierdness is fairly prevalent. I'm thinking the battery reconnection may solve all but, if not, it should be easy to find the issues.
If you just bought a used rig, there is a good chance that it sat unused for awhile. That is a perfect opportunity for Mr. Oxidation to set up residence in switches and connections. One of the first measurements I'd be taking is if there is power to the range hood switches and the water meter location. If power is present, a flip of the switch should show power on the other side of the switch. If power is present on the device side of the switch, there may be an issue with the device (fan) connection or the device itself. If there is a faulty switch, I try to deoxidize the switch internals with Caig Deoxit spray. That is the last effort before replacing the switch.
Sorry, you may know all about troubleshooting and the above is just blathering. I need to correct for my coffee buzz.
Great info ... am a new and learning a lot about these things so no I don;t much about troubleshooting ... especially when it comes to these TT's.
Hoping the battery thing fixes it but I've got a feeling it won't
Just weird how it all worked when I parked it then about a month or so later I try it all again and they just Don't Work Anymore.
Guess that's how things break eventually huh ... they will just stop working for some odd reason.
Pulled the power/water meter and all looks good there ... though there as far I can tell ... not sure if it is suppose to have any power but I guess if that thing doesn't work it's not really the end of the world .... just would like the range to work ... I take that back ... the better half would like it to work and gotta make the ol' lady happy.
Thank you so much for taking the time to help and offer advice. :)
