[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 1102481, member: 369937"] How old is the receiver?? It could be a power supply problem at the receiver, if the DC voltage is too low to turn the motor it wont move to good. If the receiver is over 3 years old (or more) it may have some dried up electrolytic caps in the internal power supply feeding the motor, when locked to a satellite do you have any problems changing between horizontal and vertical transponders?? ([I]Vertical[/I] (13v) to [I]Horizontal[/I] (18v)) And you mentioned you had a problem with a loose connection at the motor, it could be a problem with a corroded connection at the input side of the motor.
