I have a good arm...although the bin in Devon is a throw too far for me :D
Fair play, It was worth a try tho eh :naughty: Damm you yorkshiremen....

Im not one to be beaten so had another crack at the control board. Rewired the inputs to the L297, bypassed the output relays and it worked.............:dance:

......Until I turned the Vref pot the wrong way and fryed the output chips AGAIN. So at least I've found something i'm good at. :rofl:

Question time. If all 3 motors are 2 phase, 8 wire and configured in parallel, then why is one of the motors wired differently at the board plug? surley the phases cant change as the motor wouldnt turn...

Hope to make some real progress this weekend. so post some more pics soon
