    Default Avantra 44 takeup motor problem

    we are having recently very strange problem, if any one can help to analyze it.
    the take up align motor don't work. when i try to test it by AvDiag its work and rotate, but the AvDiag report Failed..
    could the Dec board have problem or other board, or where could be the problem?

    If you can stop it with a low "finger pressure" - it's failed.

    Try to swap up two SDM boards at your Avantra and see what will happen.

    TU motor is PITTMAN 24V DC motor, but actual value depends on the parameters like a current and a speed.
    Remove one wire off TU motor and measure the voldage on the wires, not at motor's pins.
    If you will see about 20V DC without motor and 6V with it - think!

    Swap SDMs and, if your still have a problem - change the motor.

    i swap the unload cassette b motor with take up motor , but still have the same problem i solve the case by change take up wind current value from 75 to 105 .
    in the end of the day when i try to unload cassette b it's not work too .
    as i see i need new motor for cassette B , but why takeup motor need more current to run ??

    1. 'cause motors are different (check the reduction rate on motor's labels)
    2. Carbon brushes worn out
