Hi Bill
Just been out and had a look at my mount. Took the gear and circuit board
covers off. No sign of smoke or fire and the RA/DEC gears move freely.
Next step was to have a good look at the circuit board. I did not attempt to remove it (didn't know how to anyway) but I see that it is connected by five little plugs and sockets. So I removed all the plugs a couple of times and reseated them. This appears to have fixed the problem as the RA (and DEC) gears will now move to the command of the Controller buttons.
Now for a night test when another clear night comes along!
Thanks again for your help.
Cheers Peter
