RH headlight motor

[Herman]

Possibly looking for a RH headlight motor, if anyone's got one spare?

It looks like I toasted mine by plugging in an unsuitable relay.

(Unless anyone happens to know the spec of the diode within them, in which case I'll try and replace the component )

Got some in my unit. Will have a look and see what there like.

Thanks

Got motors for both sides.
Will see if they work if you still need one

[Herman]

I certainly do, thank you!

I think I may have found a lead on eBay selling one for £35 posted, but I'd rather buy from a fellow RX7FB member if possible, to help keep it in the club!

Bringing home my power probe from work on Saturday so will test them for you then..

Hi Mark,

Seem to have it sorted now - replaced one of the diodes that had blown in the switch on the motor, which has fixed it nicely.

Thanks anyway,

Pete

No worries pal.
Still have the motors in the shed if you need them..

Hi Herman, do you know what diode you needed, it may help others with the same problem in future if they find this thread

The diode in there was a Hitachi sr1k-4 , but I used a generic shunt resistor I found on an old PCB with similar values on the multimeter - 450 ish IIIRC.
