    I have an AB Dick 9850 that I purchased not too long ago and decided to put a Kompac on. As it is running, the drive motor will stop. Air and vaccum motor still runs. I have changed out the drive motor and have changed out the electrical box itself from other parts presses of which I know those 2 parts did not have that problem. Any idea where to check for this problem or what it could be?

    Sounds to me that your drive motor is getting shorted out somewhere. You still got all the electrical components in it? When the mother board is dying it does a lot of strange things that are not explainable and its damn near impossible to find one any more. If you still got everything make sure all sensors and things are free and clear could be tripping the double detector or something similar to that, that would cause the drive motor to stop and not the pump
