REFLECTOR: Trim motor

[Bellsouth Home]

Scott,
Sounds like VooDoo.  But I know if I'm confused and am only working part time if I turn around a few time I can usually get back on task. I just did not know it worked for actuators.  
I'll bite.  What is the theory here?  I'm not doubting you just curious. I received clarification on String Theory and Quantum Theory here so a little more for Grasshopper      Master please.

>> Is there a problem with the trim motor that I am unaware?  My trim has stopped working. I worked on it most of yesterday checking all the wires, checking the switch (including try two different switches), verifying the connections and schematic routings with no joy. Originally I would get movement if I connected a batter directly to the motor, sometime through the entire range of movement, sometimes intermentantly. However, now it has stopped working all together.
