Re: Window Motor Problem?

Can you post a screen shot of you code that is switch the motor from one direction to the other? This sounds like you might accidentally be sending the motor both a forward command and a reverse command. That can result in your speed controller randomly switch from forward to reverse at high speed, thus resulting in your motor twitching.

You beat me to the punch with testing with a CIM. Good job. That definitely isolates it to a programming or electrical problem.
