Re: usage of denso window motor

Does anyone have experience with putting two or more Denso motors to power the same shaft?
Yes, we did something like that last year. We used two motors on a single shaft to form a winch that wound our kicker's spring. Worked fine.

If there was any difference in speeds, well, we let the motors work that out. The winch lasted all season and we never had issues with it.

We used spikes to drive the motors. I can't recall if we were able to use a PWM splitter cable or if (spin) direction differences caused us to need two separate PWM ports. But its probably a good idea to work out which way everything turns before you assemble it. We did blow the fuses in the spikes a couple times when the kicker locked up, but the winch just kept working.
