    how to determine stepper motor wiring

    Have a 6 lead stepper, can not find data sheet. Coil 9.2ohm

    I have isolated 2 groups of 3 leads using a ohm meter.

    the first set from left to right

    brown, white, blue

    Ohm reading
    brown to white is 9ohm,
    brown to blue 20ohm
    white to blue 9ohm

    can someone explain the wiring based on those readings? which wire would the power input if I was using 12v power supply?

    If you are using a bipolar drive, you would connect brown and blue and insulate white.
    If you are using a unipolar drive, you would connect white to 12V and brown and blue to your drive.
