ACORN 80 Maintenance & Service Manual
APPENDIX 7
Levelling and Main Drive Encoder Testing
All voltages are measured with ref to ground. (0V)
Check the encoder supply voltage on the red wire.
This should be approximately 5V.
Make sure that there is continuity between the black,
negative wire and ground.
Ensure that all the crimps are seated correctly and
have not been flattened. This can happen when a
meter probe is forced into the plug while testing. It
can also make a connection and appear to be working
correctly until the probe is removed!
