My x drive motor on my PRS Buddy started jerking and making noise. I had used the machine and everything worked well. I turned it off for a little while and started it up again and the x drive motor sounded awful. I checked the forum and used some ideas to investigate and found that the Gecko drive seems to be the culprit.
I know a lot has been written about this problem, and I have tried changing the wiring around, etc. A new driver is $147, and my warranty has just run out. Should I just go ahead and cough up the bucks and get a new one, or does anyone have any suggestions? I am mechanical, but not electrical. Any repair beyond plug and play will be out of my capabilities. Thanks, joe
