Hello,
I was working on my CNC X1 mill, and notice that my Y stepper wasn't working. So I played around with it for a while trying to get it to work, and noticed that a little bit of water was coming out of the opening where the wires insert to the motor.
I opened up the motor, and yup bingo there was corrosion & water. I did my best to to clean it out and even sucked the water out with a wet vac. I then tried the motor once more, got a little bit of a buzz and a little jerk from it when jogging toward me (just a jerk, probably not even .010 of a move). When I tired to move it again in the same direction (toward me), nothing (then became silent).
What can I do or should I call it a day ?
Thanks
