Removed the motor/gearbox and then separated the motor from the gearbox. Both the motor and gearbox move freely, so at this point the greatest likelyhood seems to be that the driver electronics integrated into the motor have failed. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: stueben: Sun Oct 22 00:48:04 GMT 2017 Orographic clouds beneath cirrus. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY stueben: Sun Oct 22 01:04:13 GMT 2017 No data today, cloudy all day. ___end___
