Many clients, when uninstalling a unit or moving it to another vehicle, either forget to reconnect the unit to the vehicle ignition or accidentally tear the ignition wire out and damage the unit. If there's a red wire going from the unit to your vehicle ignition, the vehicle power is on and you still see the statu LED on solid, the unit should be returned for service or replaced (depending on whether or not you have a valid warranty or service agreement in place). Jam - Status Light Blinks Once or Twice This means something is causing the system to draw too much power, so the unit shuts down for safety. The load of material (sand, salt, etc.) could be frozen, a mechanical shaft or linkage could be bent out of true, there could be a piece of crud caught somewhere. The easiest way to troubleshoot this is with a clamp-on DC amp meter, like one of these.

` Uni-Trend UT-203 Available on eBay for about $40 Mastech MS2108A Available on eBay for about $40 Amprobe ACD-52NAV Available at Granger for about $300 These meters can be bought online. We use the Amprobe model in our shop. You can use any model you like so long as it reads DC current up to at least 100A. A peak function helps, because that tells you at a glance what the max current draw was before shutdown. Hang the meter off one of the main power wires (red or black, doesn't matter) going into the unit, stand clear of the spreader, then turn the unit on and run the motor that was throwing the jam code. If you run the motor and see a reading above 30A for 2 seconds or more, the system is drawing too much power and the unit is doing exactly what it is supposed to be doing, protecting you from an electrical fire.

Check for crud or bent parts, because the unit is working fine. That number is +/- 10%, by the way.

Overheat - Status Light Blinks Three Times Do not install a controller under a heat vent. If you must install a controller where warm air will be blown on it, please install an appropriate sheild between the unit and the vent so that the warm air is directed away from the controller. These units draw a lot of power to do their job, and power translates to heat. Each unit uses the metal case to help get the heat out, but if you work a unit hard for long enough, it might get hot and tired and need a break. If the inside of the vehicle where the unit is running is especially warm, or if you pile things on top of the unit, that cuts down on its ability to get rid of heat and may trigger an overheat alarm. Try letting the unit cool off, then turning the heat down and making sure it is exposed to the open air.
