 |
|
Hello! I'm new here and I have a question for you. I have a Grumman flap
motor and I need a little help with wire identification. There are 4
wires from the motor which are black, red, yellow and brown. I know two
of them are for the limit switches but I don't have a wiring diagram for
which is + and -. I've seen a diagram on the web that showed a black and
orange wire for flaps but I don't have an orange wire. I have a project
I'd like to use this on.
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

If you looked at my wiring diagram, I think I put orange because that is what it said in the original paperwork/drawing. The motor is a simple DC motor. The limit switches have nothing to do with the motor. I don't recall what the colors are from the switches.

Thank you Gary. I'll take another look. Is there a place I can send this
in for repair or motor replacement if necessary?

A few of years ago I opened up a Cheetah on which the flap didn't work. The area around the flap was full of water. The motor was rusty. I took it to a local shop that specializes in small motors and alternators. They took it apart, cleaned it up, put in new brushes, bead blasted it, powder coated it and gave it back, all for $50.00.
Find a shop that specializes in small electric motors. Find someone who may charge more, but is an obsessive compulsive.
