Well, with the last lake effect snow (about 7") around Chicago (using Midway Airport) we just broke December snowfall record for most snow in the month of Decemeber $$$$.
Of course, now, I am having a problem. I have the Fisher EZ-V 8.5' plow and I am having problems with the controller (AKA: Fish-Stik). The unit is not "lighting" up getting power for some reason. The unit is "turned on", I checked and replaced the fuses and all connections (3 of them) on the front harness are connected. The weird thing is no power is going to the controller. Then without doing anything and sitting idle for 30 mins. or so the controller will light up and be working again only to go out after about an hour. I am guessing maybe somehow the harness connections are getting wet inside? and I use deelectric grease on them (actually they are smoothered with delectric grease). Could too much delectric grease cause this.
If anyone has had similar problem and/or any suggestions it would be much appreciated. With all the snow here it is going to be hard to get it in for service and I ma hoping (really really hoping) it is something very simple that I am overlooking and/or can correct myself. Thanks .... ED
