Hi All,
I bought a 2nd hand HEQ5 Pro mount from a member here about a month ago. Between weather, work, buying a scope and awaiting parts to build an EQDirect cable, I've only just gotten around to powering it up today. The mount has a belt mod. When I plugged in the hand controller and just tried to move in RA and Dec, the RA axis moves OK, but when I try Dec movement, nothing happens.
I took off the motor covers and I can see the belt cog, belt, pulley and motor shaft all move, but there is no rotation of the axis.
Please tell me I am doing something wrong, and it's not a busted motor?
If it is a busted motor, anyone know how I get it replaced?
Thanks.
Russell.
