Error Question
What should I check for error 215 on the AMX-4 Series?
Short Answer
Note: (214 / 215 LEFT DRIVE - 216 / 217 RIGHT DRIVE) 1) Check drive motors/motor brushes. 2) Check Drive Control and Drive Amplifier Boards and connections to those boards. 3) Check fuse AMX1A3F9 (+BATT). 4) Check wires (push-on terminals) to both fuse holders (F1 & F2); pull each one off and clean terminal oxidation. 5) Check for loose leads on K1 and K2 relays on Drive Power Amplifier Board. 6) Check for excessive play in main drive wheels; internal gearing in drive wheels may be worn.
