Empire Prophecy won’t soon motor

[lhamilton1807]

I’ve been struggling with an old Prophecy v1 loader. I’ve tried 4xAA and 2x9V battery configurations and neither will get the motor to spin when the board turns on.

Lights work just fine - I can go through programming modes and I see the red light blink when I smack the shell so I know the microphone is picking up “shots” and is telling the motor to spin. But nothing happens.

Is there anything else I should try before replacing the motor itself?

Make sure it's producing voltage to the motor when triggered. Then you will know if the board is bad, or the motor.

Of course… will put a meter across the motor contacts when it starts up. Thx
