Well I guess my luck runs out. I have been running my X2 for a couple years with the stock controller, motor and belt drive conversion. I'm working on converting a G0704 using HOSS plans so I'm anxious to get this going again. Controller is the FC350BJ/110V
Done to date:
Sent the board off to a person recommended here and it passed all his tests, put it back in with same results (initially).
Changed the speed pot.
Tried a second motor, not the same HF motor but close.
Initial problem – motor comes on fine but I could EASILY stop it by hand at any speed. It trips the over current relay.
Current symptoms – After playing with it some (not really changing anything) it now has more power but still obviously reduced. When I stop the motor by hand the relay clicks but the motor continues to try and turn. If I release my grip on the spindle, the motor will spin up again. This seems to me that there is an issue with the relay or the current sensing circuit but just a guess based on the symptoms.
Any help would be appreciated.
Note: Because I’m impatient to keep going on my G0704 conversion I have ordered a KBMM-125 in case we can’t get this controller going again. I’ll start another thread on that one.
