Hi all, I have an issue with the elevation on my torro sturmtiger, it was working but not anymore, I have spent a couple
of hours this afternoon pulling out the little hair I have left.
1/ the motor works from a battery
2/ there is power on the turret elevation pins

The elevation is green and brown.

the two motor wires and the attachment plug, am I missing off an earth wire?

any help welcome.

regards john

Hi, elevation motor is fine when connected to a separate battery

The muck is just some plastic filings from hacking off the mudgards,
1/ there as power at the mfu
2/ there is power at the pins when tested with voltmeter
3/the barrel elevates when connected to a battery
4/no broken wires

regards john

motor tested with upper body totally disconnected from mfu

Hi, 7.6 ish on the sturms battery and the same on the test battery both nimh

An odd one this, the two wires in my fingers go directly to the turret elevation motor, when I touch them on the spare
battery the turret elevation works, there is 7.6 ish volts at the first two pins, will have a fresh look at this tomorrow as
its now doin my ead in

regards john

At one point the 3 pin plug ( in my fingers) had another wire that I removed, it did still work after though.
