if I understand correctly, this is where the short circuit is? Unless I am mistaken? is this the location of the button for "Binder" the plate? not reverse the power supply which is the red plug!! only my personal opinion. But before replacing with new equipment? check the existing wiring, otherwise you will have the same results 8O

this socket is not the elevation positive .... everything concerning the turret is on the 8-pin plug, connected by a cord to the 8-pin socket on the upper chassis. See actual connection, and compliant, in the attached photo

this is the correct connection to CN 9

As you can see on the color photo of the 8-pin plug, everything concerning the turret is on this plug now and the wire colors (in principle, except for exceptions) correspond. Good after as I explained in a previous message, check your wiring? otherwise it will still smoke, :thumbdown: good luck for the rest.

If your going to install the V6 receiver the whole tank will need rewiring but its not difficult.
Everything on the V6 has its own circuit and connection to the board which makes things a lot simpler.
