Final update: Issue fixed.
Went to Bintel to talk with Michael and he was awesome. After updating him on this painful quest to get eqmod running and the veredict after successfully firing up a heq5 was that something was wrong with the mount/connector. The motors' controller board was flashed after that, in case it was a driver issue, with no success. Then Michael asked if I would like to leave the mount there and they would crack it open and see what was happening.
Result: one of the wires coming out of the db9 connector was broken. When they tried to repair, another two or three came out. The db9 connector was doomed (maybe due to umidity). They replaced the front cover (to get a good connector) and it fired up straight away.

Thanks a lot AndrewJ, RobF and everyone else who tried to help!
Special thanks to Michael (Bintel)(he is truly awesome).
