Sounds like you have the surface mount type of L1.
I have saved many customers a pile of money by pulling 5VDC from the logic power supply through an automotive type in line fuse (2 amps), running it to the prior mentioned capacitor on the AXSBOB 9soldering the wire to the + leg of the capacitor. This powers the encoders, is fused and back feeds the BMDC. I vary the size of the fuse based on application.
This is what I do. I do not suggest this to anyone that cannot follow a schematic well. I assume no liability for what you do.
The customer above has a later control. Bridgeport figured out that customers were not happy replacing BMDC boards and started protecting them with breakers.
