Re: Window Motor/Snowblower and 12v only one way

cusak,
It could be that the one direction has significant current demands. As such, the breaker may be tripping open. Do you hear a clicking sound when the motor stops? The motor controller may also be going into over current protect. Do you notice any LED behavior on the controller that is different than the other direction?
