CARRIER WON'T RUN EITHER DIRECTION:

 

This presumes that the power 

LED

 works properly.  If it does not, go to the paragraph on 

"NOTHING WORKS"

.  First replace the 

MOTOR FUSE.

  Replace it only with an AGC10 fuse.  

This is a U.L. listed fuse rated for 120vac.  Do not use fuses rated for only 32vac.  If the carrier 
does not run, proceed to the paragraph 

"CARRIER WON'T RUN IN WHEN INSIDE RECALL 

BUTTON IS DEPRESSED".

  If the carrier still won’t run, replace the 

DRIVE ASSEMBLY

 

 

CARRIER WON'T SHIFT INTO HIGH SPEED:

 

Adjust the speed shift points as instructed on page 9.  If the carrier will still not run in high speed, 
monitor the voltage to the motor at the connections to the motor in the power module.  Note:  
These connections are fully insulated quick connects; however, there is room to carefully slip 
meter leads into them sufficient to make contact for measuring purposes.  The motor must be 
connected for this test.  Run the carrier.  The voltage should be approximately 36vdc in slow and 
88vdc in high.  If the voltage changes and the speed don’t, inspect the machine for anything 
causing excessive drag such as damaged tape, bows, sags or misalignment in the track or bad 
bearings in the surround.  If the voltage doesn't change, observe the 

CHAIN LED

.  This 

LED

 

should flash on twice for each revolution of the motor. If it does not, check SJ1 connection on the 
control board.  If connection is O.K., replace the 

DRIVE ASSEMBLY.  

If it still does not, replace 

the 

CONTROL BOARD.

   

 

CARRIER IS IN HIGH SPEED IN THE VERTICAL SECTIONS:

 

Adjust the speed shift points as instructed on page 9. 
 

CARRIER OVERRUNS STOP POSITION ON INSIDE END: 

First, insure that the carrier is traveling in the slow speed in the vertical section.  Check to insure 
that the gap between the magnet and the black switch is 1/8" or less.  With the carrier at the stop 
position and the magnet positioned on one of the stop switches, check the 

LED

 labeled T-L.  It 

should be on.  If it is not, replace the 

SWITCH;

 if it is still not on, replace the 

CONTROL BOARD

 

CARRIER OVERRUNS THE CAR & TRUCK STOP POSITIONS ON THE CUSTOMER 
END:

 

First, insure that the carrier is traveling in the slow speed in the vertical section.  Check to insure 
that the gap between the magnet and the black switch is 1/8" or less.  With the carrier at the stop 
position and the magnet positioned on one of the stop switches, check the 

LED

 labeled T

-

L.  It 

should be on.  If it is not, replace the 

SWITCH;

 if it is still not on, replace the 

CONTROL BOARD. 

 
RELAYS AND BRAKE CLICK; MOTOR WON’T RUN: 

There is a brake interlock switch, which prevents the motor from running unless the brake fully releases.  
Check J11 connection on the Control Board.  If you still experience this problem, please consult the 
factory.
