Thank you for your suggestions gents.
I'm babysitting the unit for the second day. Wahoo!
Postal, I was able to see all 3 phases before trying to check the brake. That was my initial thought as well. Great minds think alike. :-)
Sccjr, I lifted B1 and boy does it seen familiar... I'm replacing all of the aux contacts tomorrow after I pick them up. They are showing signs of wear.
Always great advise not to trust the ohm (continuity) readings of a meter. I prefer reading voltage myself. Checking the voltage drop has served me well.
Galaxy, I'll check it out thanks...
