Hi The 125mA fuse is the recommended fuse for the counter, the sensors run on 24vdc supplied by the counter, the transformer is fused separately to the counter at 2Amps with no earth, only the motor has an earth wire the transformer and the counter have no earth connection - the incoming earth...

Hi Thanks for your reply I'm more inclined to suspect the transformer than the sensors or the counter as that's the oldest component, the counter and sensors are both new

Yes it's on

Hi Thanks I was thinking that the red wires were one for each winding and the black a common for both but I don't really know There's no continuity between the two red wires so if they are the main winding then it's probably popped as you say But if that's the case then what is the back wire...

I know it's not in the best of condition but I like a challenge, it's been stood for about a year and was covered in a combination of over spray and saw dust but it turns ok
