Hi Greg,

the mount slews to home, homes and then if I slew further east I get an alarm which prohibits any further slewing. After that the motor will not initialize unless I physically move the mount. We think it is the motor which has an intermittent fault and that has caused the problem. So, first up we will try to replace the motor and if that does not work then it will be the main board. Both are costly items but I don't want to pay for both and only need the motor. The motor is $500 USD and the board is $950 USD. Each attracting GST too. With the way the exchange rate is at present I am loath to spend too much, but I need the mount fixed.
