I didn't mean to shout last post. It is just that I couldn't see how a motor unconnected with power could feel different when turned with wires connected/un con.
Just shows me how little I know and how much there is to learn. I am not sure I have enough years left in me for this and Gypsy Jazz.
If I connect wires as per above from Jonathan, the motor does indeed get stiffer to turn by hand. Connecting Thus however-

Yellow / Black
Blue / Red
Brown / White
Green / Orange
and the motor feels much the same as unconnected. So what is going on here? Is there no standard. Confused as ever Phil.
