Re: Van Door Motor Problem
Apparently.. :sigh: I have found something that opens an even more frustrating question to this problem.

http://www2.usfirst.org/2005comp/Specs/Taigene_PSD.pdf

shows the spec for motor number:
Quote:
Specification for motor 16638628 & Specification number 166198


While the motor we received was actually (as shown in the picture below) number 16644829 Rev02.


This irritates me. Did we get the wrong motor? Are the spec sheets on the FIRST website the wrong one?


:sigh:

Can someone else post as to what number their motor says.

Oh, and BTW.. going by the spec sheet that is on the FIRST site, which says 52RPM at 10.5v and 76 @ 12 Volts, then I believe the spec sheet may be right, and we got the wrong motor. Just a thought though.

And, to add to this, I personally checked the voltage at the connection of the Van Door and it was around 12v.
