There I was being my usual congenial self (ahem) and checking out a request by someone on the forum and my ford anglia motor (that moves my dish) stopped working.
Horrors, how could it, and how could I fix this. To cut a long story short, having a couple of days off this week I decided to see what had happened. Sure enough looks like (and smells like) the windings have burnt out, then I noticed a second spade connector on the side and though what is this, connected up and whey hey I'm up and running again, I was forgetting that the wiper motor was two speed and I was using the slow speed. Still I am going to get my thinking cap on and see what I can replace it with.
