BE motor not shutting off

[Hugo]

Hi,

I have a problem with a BE motor on a 82/70 with a MP Chassis.
The BE motor is continously running unless I unpluged it or the general power plug. The pit and general switch (on the back-end panel) do not shut it off.
As soon as I plug the general power plug it starts (with the BE relay in the chassis not activated), if I start the machine and hit the reset button I see the relay switching off then on, but the motor keep running.
Sweep and table are in 0 position.
The ball return is not activated unless I switch on the machine.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for your help.

BE motor relay is shorted - replace it

Just to be sure the BE Motor relay is "Relay P&B KA5AV 24V" ref: 755 504 006 ?

If yes, I've changed it, it does not change a thing, same problem happens.

Change the board with one that is known good.

BTW - if the B.E. relay was shorted, it would smoke the board - I think Jerry may have meant the B.E. relay was stuck or fused together.

you could just tap the chasis with a bowling pin, on the front right corner. this will unstick the relay.

What is with this hit it and bend it crap lately? Why don't you guys just fix your problems? Hugo.......do what Wb8yjf says and try it out. Please let us know.

Did you verify that the coil of the BE relay isn't continuously grounded?

No one said anything about hitting things. Tapping is a way you can tell if the relay is stuck. Tapping is your friend.

Tapping can help you find things you may not be able to otherwise find.

Otherwise known as trouble shooting.. haha.. few taps here, few taps there...

TAPS...not slamming with a hammer or trying to kick it across the center....lol

kick it across the center....lol

That happens when the TAPS don't yeild a result of any kind..

I used to love tapping what 'you may not be able to otherwise find'. But now I'm married...Those days are gone...
