I bought this dish mover in December 2016. I finally started using it in late December 2018 after my 4DTV finally died for good. (after other problems, it quit being able to read position counts but would still move the dish)
The other day, I went to move my 10 foot mesh dish using my Linkbox 9000 to control the Asc 1 and it did not move! I have the remote control lock on, so I got up to go look at that tiny screen and it had - dish limit? or motor blocked? I hit OK and then tried the E and W buttons. I do not know which way worked? After 2 or 3 cycles of this it began working.
Today I was on SES 101 for Perry Mason and then moved to AMC 18. When I tried to go back to SES 101 nothing happened again! Nothing I can do today will make it go East!
I spent a couple of hours looking on line for posts I have read about the bad relays in the ASC 1 but I could not find them!
This evening I used the Linkbox to move West to 113 for DR WHO, worked just like it is supposed to, no lost counts or anything, it just will not go East!
Just so you know, I have 2 week old RG-6 Quaud shield coax cable and one reason it took me so long to install the ASC 1 was that I knew it needed something like this https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/dxe-cw1812or
I am also using CAT-5 for my skew and a 2 year old Venture arm 36 or 38 inch, i forget.
I will take any help you can give me! New part numbers for those relays; links to those old posts; or just tell me how to disassemble the ASC 1? Are there screws under the rubber plugs on the bottom?
