d.. Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I mean before the problem arose or the motors themselves need to be in a certain sequence for the movement to rotate correctly when fitted as when they are loose it will just spin as it should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartlyons.sl1 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Would also check to see if the spline fitment on the arm itself is in good order. If worn motor will turn arms will stay still. Hope this helps. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
