I checked out some treadmill motors rescued from defunct treadmills and discovered they are really not reversible. Mine will run in both directions but one direction the armature arcs more than the other direction. A closer investigation of the motor showed that the brushes contact the commutator at an angle. Sooo... My treadmill motor isn't designed to run both directions. Maybe you are moving the brushes backwards causing problems? I think the motor I have is only suitable for the direction it is designed to run.
Maybe this will help... Clint ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
