My Geotrack H-120 motor has stopped working?

Last week whilst setting up my dish it worked intermittently,
Sometimes running on its own?

Now it won't drive either from the STB or manual buttons.

Any Ideas?

Is it possible to disassemble it to check for loose connections?

I have been thinking about replacement motor.
Dark Motor with metal gears, Good choice or not?

Check cable connections exiting the motor and receiver :)

Made off connections at both STB and Motor

How can I tell if its the STB?

Sorted!

Went into Menu and Disabled limits, which somehow were preventing motor from moving at all ???
