Possible RPM sensor

failure. Unplug to reset.

Symptom: One or both of the Indicator lights on the safety reversing sensors
do not glow steady.

Inspect sensor wires for a short (staple in wire), correct wiring polarity

(biack/white wires reversed), broken or disconnected wires, replace/attach
as needed.

• Disconnect all wires from back of motor unit.
• Remove sensors from brackets and shorten sensor wires to 1-2 ft (30-60 cm) from

back each of sensor.

• Reattach sending eye to motor unit using shortened wires. If sending eye indicator

light giows steadily, attach the receiving eye.

• Align sensors, if the indicator lights glow replace the wires for the sensors. If the

sensor indicator lights do not light, replace the safety reversing sensors.

Symptom: RPM Sensor = Short travel 6-8" (15-20 cm).

Unplug unit to reset. Try to operate motor unit, check diagnostic code.
• If it is still flashing 5 times and motor unit moves 6-8" (15-20 cm), replace RPM

sensor.

• If motor unit doesn’t operate, motor unit is overheated. Wait 30 minutes and retry. If

motor unit still will not operate replace logic board.
