One motor occasionally fails to actuate even though the motor can be heard running. Opening the release valve, opening the gate and closing the valve allows it to operate for a few days until it happens again. Have had motor oil refilled / topped up by specialist.
I saw this problem reported before but apparently no solution found. Any clues anyone? Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for the message,
it is hard to definitely say however, it could be a sign of a failing capacitor if it is the 230v variant of the Lux motor. Have you tried replacing this?

Thank you Joe. Yes they are the 240 v version and I have changed capacitors and topped up oil and still no change. Still need help. !!!

Hi,
Thank you for your response on this.
Have you tried going through a limit search procedure, I am unaware of what control board you have in situ but every control board has a limit search procedure. Furthermore, if we can identify what control board you have in situ if it has a LCD display on it there could potentially be a fault code on it, could you tell me if this has any message on it?
