Whether the logo says "Honeywell" or "Microswitch", the quality should be the same.  |  IP: Logged Lance C.

Took it out of the box and put it on the platter and started running a show and it is doing the exact same thing, wrapping around twice and then catching up. I doubt this brand new brain could be bad so what else could be doing this? Could this be a problem with my take-up plate? Monte: Are the brushes hard to change out and you can you tell if they are bad and need to be replaced? [ 12-22-2005, 03:34 PM: Message edited by: Patrick Matthews ]  |  IP: Logged
