Motor going wrong way!!

Smokerkl

Hi I know this sounds stupid but just stripped my mates mp5(he ran it over) (dont ask)!!! and know the motor is going the wrong way??? How the heck can this happen, in all my time Ive never seen this before!!!! Basically trying to spin the gears the wrong way and sticking the anti reversal latch. Any advice?

The motor connections are reversed.
Solution: switch around connections.

Being drunk isn't the problem... And it depends on how many people see this, but probably.
Does the gun work now?

You need to get a polarity reverser. their a bit pricey though but you can do it with a microwave. wrap the motor in tinfoil and stick it in for 1 min on 800w.

WOrks now yeah but the red wire is on the black connecter and black wire on red connecter??? Microwave trick Masada- You can keep that one I tried the light bulb in the microwave and that did work and is cool as mustard!!

Smokerkl

Yeah all connecters are fine Im just baffled at this.. No you cant put any reflective metal in a microwave unless you want sparks-Source of that- Chef for 16 years and tried everything in them!!!! You can put non reflecttive in them though(most good ones anyway)

But it's advice from Richie, his advice is like something from the BIble, you have to believe it...

Tell you what then you do it and video it then put the link up here then we can all laugh and forget about me being a knobber with backwards wires??

Smokerkl: just turn your motor around, and so the red connector is on the red wire... simples also... Daft twat!


as for richie's advice being like the bible... true... true.. It's mostly second hand knowlage, writen down by someone else, and the best work of fiction since harry potter

Its a CA MP5 You know how short them wires are??? Come on Girl even you know that!! And the point was red wire to red and black to black motor was going the wrong way but red to black and black to red it works?? Am I that pi***d or what?????
S..

Firekitten

Yeah, but its designed to go in a certain way... unless you trapped some of the wire under the body shell against the gearbox? Is it running now or still doing the 'backwards' thing... if it is, its probably locked and wants its anti reversal unlatching

Masada

Before one of you burns yo gaf down, i was only messing in my other post, yes kitten, we know you charge your mobile phone in there. but your deadly like that..


have you by any chance mixed up the wires at the fuse?
install the motor as you had it and check the fus wiring to see if its the right way around.

Firekitten

In comes masada with the idiotproof checklist for gunfail.... yep, if in doubt, check it... something simple can cause the biggest ****ups in aegs...

and why yes dear, I am that 'deadly' as you say.... Have you checked the last post in the photos thread? you'd aprove of me shank

Masada

Mines bigger...

He needs a finish quantum with the powerball, this is a common issue, requesting sticky thread.

Ok this is proper mental now. Now before anybody gets wierd and evn more daft I know what Im doing with aeg internals its just this freaked me out for ages today. Everything set,wired correctly,nothing trapped etc etc normal stripping cleaning fixng a knackered mp5,when battery wires from box to motor red needs to be on black and black needs to be on red. At least it works now, Barrels still bent from being run over but hey I aint got a vice..
