I'm going to have to get my VIS motors sorted at some point, I dont think the Power VIS is working on either ZT.

You will be surprised how many different potential failure points there are on a vis motor, some are unique to the Power, some are unique to the Balance and other problems effect both.
I'm surprised that people can apparently resurrect 80 to 90% of the motors as in my experience not many of the motors contaminated with oil will run below 65Ma for any length of time. It may run but IT WILL FAIL AGAIN.
Lost count of the number I have refurbished now but it is far, far in excess of 500

These ones work fantastic 3yrs and still going strong thank you Dave
