    DC motor armature winding question

    I am starting to see that! I have a very similar armature out of a small starter motor but it looks like it has 2 different wraps, one going one way, and another going the other way, instead of wound in one big rotation. I did try repairing the burned up wires. It worked, actually, for about a...

    DC motor armature winding question

    Than you very much for the information. The problem is that the wires were so burned up, I managed to get an idea on how the wires were wound, but that's about it. I know that in my particular motor, I had 8 wraps of wire par coil, and each coil was spread across 5 channels, using two channels...

    Reasons why horizontal sync on LCD is erratic

    Hello,I recently found, yes found a DVD player headunit for a car in the desert. The touch portion of the screen, which was glass, was shattered, but the screen itself was intact. (More or less, save some scratches and the erosion of the matte finish in some areas) I have gone through the unit...
