I removed the rotor from the tower today and started working on the azimuth rotor. When power is applied via left or right control the motor is running. I carefully split the case and everything appears intact. Grease is still good, no missing gear teeth, no metal shavings in bottom of housing. So the problem is somewhere in the gearing, or mechanical control. I would like to proceed further but have no exploded view of the inside of the rotor. I wouldn't want to proceed without some kind of service manual part description view. Does anyone have anything that might help? Does anyone have a clue, maybe had this same problem and fixed it?I already have the useless Yaesu user manual..
