We once tripped the spindle breakers(in transformer cabinet) when planting a broken tool into an Al casting. Couldnt get spindle to fire up, everything else was fine. With tech on phone, went through book and fixed prob by resetting the spindle breakers. I'll take a beer if this fixes it!!

the baldor screen of the baldor can be defektiv

Get ahold of these guys they can fix it! www.Practecllc.com We had the same issue it was a capacitor and they updated and upgraded the entire unit so now it will last 5 times longer and the bill was $1475 shipped. Make sure the unit is at least getting power. This is common when a fan burns out in the drive.
