Good that you caught this one in time. Did you go with Phoenix Contact parts for the X & Y replacements or use imports?
I repaired the X and Y drivers that the connectors and plugs had burned the contacts, at that time the Z looked fine (about 1 year ago), didnt look as good yesterday, I need to find a plug and connector more appropriate, this fix works but doesnt look very good................ The only damage was a broken drill, a scurfed part, and a divoted soft jaw.......... No divots or holes in the vise or table- thats a good thing!
Moral to the story, if there is a noise thats not normal, hit the red button immediately, dont wait to see what happens as it wont be pretty!l

Ah, I kind of wondered what those pigtails were for and should have paid more attention.
Looks like at least some of the Phoenix Contact terminals are rated at 10 amps, but I've no idea if that is enough for this application. I'd guess that the actual capability of import (clone) terminals are less than that.
