Hi


 


Controller gone belly up.......  Dec control + and - turns the motor the same way !!!!!


 


Does anyone have any experience of repairing these or whether just the controller can be brought, the motors are fine!


 


Cheers

As far as I know you can't buy them without the motors, I had an issue with mine last year and had to buy a new set. Have you checked for a short on the C.B.?
