        Good morning from Thailand.
        I am an expat living in Thailand and my G-650XL rotator has stopped working.
        I cant afford to buy a new one so has anything got any ideas on how to get it running again.
        Things like voltages coming out of the controller box would be very helpful.
        Any advise at all would be most appreciated.
        Thanks,
        My Thai callsign is HS0ZQA.

          there is what appears to be a reasonable tear down / repair video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbTHKrB7CfU

          seems there is a couple of common issues, teeth stripped from gears or a “butterfly” which is the main drive on the motor shaft slips due to a grub screw issue

          motor voltage seems to be 24v https://www.kur02.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47&Itemid=128

          so that should be what comes out the back of the controller
