I have a 13V 8000 series pittman servo motor with a 207:1 Gear Ratio (I think) 250 CPR that has started drawing about 1.3A and is running really slow.
Anyone have this problem that might know how to cure? I 'suspect' a magnet? or field coil came unstuck from the case, but would like any ideas before trying to disassemble it. This is actually on a Celestron Nexstar 8i, but I have about 8 other Pitman 8000 motors that I have experimented with with my sitech 1 controller and made a 10" dob <?/g/Sitechservo/album?id=100077?> system.
I guess I'll be able to fix it eventually, from motor swapping parts, but I'm at Starfest in Ontario, and am hoping to fix it today or tomorrow.
IDEAS???
