Re: need a simple motor program

Is it a new motor, possibly damaged?
That's the only other thing that comes to mind.

At full speed you should be able to test with a multi-meter to see if the motor's receiving the full 12v or close to it. Readings at other speeds won't come out right without a more sophisticated meter.
