So I located a circuit in the house which is used the least and plugged the drive in. Flipped the breaker and was greeted by fans spinning up and no nasty noises or magic smoke. Good.
Next I took a piece of wire and jumpered the 6 o-clock and 9 o-clock pins together in the SEQ IN port so it would be allowed to spin up, unlocked the heads, and started the spinup.
The lights in the house dimmed, the motor and drive started to spin up, but then it kicks out and lights the fault lamp.
Hmm, okay. So either something is wrong or the motor is overloading. I'm not quite sure.
Tried two more times, same deal.
I checked waht a single fault light meant according to this and there is nothing attributed to just the fault lamp. I can't check the bulbs either. I don't know how to remove them.
Huh. Bizarre, and worrying. :/
