Help:

I just had my declination motor fixed in the summer 6 months ago. Now after
only 15 nights out
it's deader than a nit. I get nothing when I press North or South on my LX
200 -10"-. I tried changing
the cords changed the keypad still nothing. The last time I used it there
was a chunking sound coming out of the Dec assembly stopped and opened it
today it does not seem to be getting any
power no sound from the motor at the Dec assembly.

Help were lost without our scope. Our 12" recently bought is to large for
our observatory (roll off)
we are cutting out some of the cross trusses to allow height for the scope
require a extra 8"
to use with tripod.
