What to do if my WEG DC Drives motor does not run?
- KKrista CastilloJul 28, 2025
If your WEG DC Drives motor isn't running, there are several potential causes to investigate: * **Wiring:** Ensure the power and control connections are correctly wired. Specifically, check that the digital inputs (DIx) programmed for Start/Stop, General Enable, or No External Fault are connected to GND (pin 5 of the control connector XC1). * **Analog Reference:** Verify that the external signal is properly connected and check the status of the speed potentiometer, if one is being used. * **Programming:** Confirm that the parameters are correctly programmed for your specific application. * **Fault:** Check if the drive has been disabled due to a detected fault condition. * **Motor Stall:** Try reducing the motor load, or increase the values of parameters P169 or P136/P137.
