1 Motor Not Working

GoPiGo
1

Hello,

I recently assembled my GoPiGo. 1 motor runs how I would expect. The other does not work at all. I have attempted a few troubleshooting tactics. I switched the motors from the left and right side. The functioning motor works on both the left and right side, the malfunctioning one fails on both sides.

I ran basic_test_all.py. The functioning motor works as expected and the malfunctioning motor does not run at all.

This is a fantastic product and I really enjoyed the assembly. Hopefully someone can help me get that motor up and running.

I’m sorry one of the motors is misbehaving… Is it possible for you to take a photo of the wire connections underneath the motor?

You bet! See the attached picture. Let me know if you need any others.

Thanks. No obvious issue here. I’ll see what I can do and come back to you.
