I think I will try the 16 volts and see cross my fingers.
I'll keep you posted.
Thanks so far!

Did you try swap cables as well?
G1 uses a H bridge to drive the motor and this is controlled by the encoder pulses it sends back which are read by various RA/DEC programmed (PAL) chip-sets.
G2...from what Rene said...a similar set-up aka a H bridge and reads encoders (same motors as G1) ...albeit with newer & different chip-sets than G1.
