Re: Is it okay to run one motor in a two motor transmission?

As long as the motor can back drive, you should have no problem. We do it all the time, we just pull out the breakers for the motors and it runs fine with only 1 motor in the transmission. Just alittle info: We use the CIMs and drill motors with the back drive prevention pin pulled out. So if u have a similar setup I see no problems.
