Hi Steve, I did not know that. Thanks for the info. So if I cut the center taps loose from pin 5 and insulate the individual center taps I should have all of the coil end connections in the 5 pin DIN plug and I can drive with with a standard bipolar driver?
Unless they glued those DIN connectors together or they are molded on, that should not be a difficult modification. I don't have the machine as this is for my nephew. The machine is about 10 years old. Any idea if they were molding on the DIN connectors back then?
