hi starman thanks for the link it was helpful yes but im looking to clear all memory on reciever or master reset so i can proceed with programming thanks

ok i got memory cleared same problum dish will move a little bit in either direction and stops acuater error message is displayed and dish position numbers dont change and are all at 5000

If the count isn't changing and the dish is moving something is wrong with the actuator sensor wiring or the sensor itself.

I've had wires come loose on both the actuator end and at the receiver end . I'd suspect the wires first.

Do you have the power wires reversed & the motor is trying to go " backwards " ?
