I installed my PowerPro in 2019 after it sat in the box for 2 years. In the last 6 months I have started having the following issue: after running the PowerPro for a while the display will start cycling thru the startup sequence get part way through it and start all over again. I have to turn the PowerPro off by the main switch wait a couple minutes then start up again before it will work again. Then longer I am using the SS the more frequent this occurs until I am having to turn off with main switch each time I run it. This seems to occur quicker if it is a hot day and my garage door is open. Any others with similar startup display issues cycling thru?
Thanks

Re: PowerPro issues
In my last post it auto corrected PowerPro with PowerPoint and I didn't catch it. SS customer service replied with their standard email regarding issues out of warranty to review web site manuals or schedule a call with their engineer for $20 for 15 min. I really do not like that part of their customer service.
Re: PowerPro issues
Yeah, I kind of figured that autocorrect was to blame here. I don't own a PowerPro so I didn't respond. Just to understand though, you are saying that on power up, the controls/display keep restarting/rebooting? Is that correct? There is a short troubleshooting document on the PowerPro from Shopsmith, but I didn't see anything on this in there, but maybe one of the other forum members has seen this issue on their PowerPro.

Re: PowerPro issues
You should be able to edit your post and fix the powerpoint auto correct. If you need help let me know and I think I can do it for you??

Re: PowerPro issues
I did find one previous Shopsmith forum thread from 2018 that seems to have a similar PowerPro problem, but I don't know what the resolution was for them.

Re: PowerPro issues
Yes, the control display starts rebooting but the sequence never finishes and it starts over again, forcing me to turn it off then back on again. I have a video but it maybe too large a file to upload. Can videos be uploaded to this form?
I did edit my post, but can I edit the topic title?
