Combines header control

[ohio_farm_boy]

thanks for the help checked voltages all ok, I think the problem is the fellows that had it before had the adjustments so out of wack it couldnt work, they had it so when in the running position the arm on the switch was clear to the rear and couldnt move. I adjusted it so it was more in the middle it seems to work now.

Make sure that your rate of raise and lower is not set to fast. I think the book says it should take about 8 seconds to fully raise or lower the header. I know if I have mine set to fast, I get that header bounce when it's in the automatic mode.
