I just replaced spindle drive in a 1994 vf2 :confused: :confused: and now I am getting a servos off and spindle drive failure alarm. What do I have to do to get rid of this? I am getting a solid color er3 on the spindle drive it self. That says that there is a circuit opened or closed that should not be. I am clueless please help.

duckslayer:

I am assuming you are refering to the electronics that powers the spindle motor.

Is this a
Magnetek variable frequency Spindle Drive Controller
?

If so, then go to this thread for some background

From where did you get the replacement unit, and is it an identical unit?
If so, then were you very careful to mark the wires before removal of the orignal, and get them correctly located on the new unit?
