Also, found the ground stud between the fuel filler manifold and frame. This stud also has large ground wires and it was loose. Terrible Quality Control. After tightening the studs same problem came back.

You can google Hall effect to see how it works. The Hall effect sensor produces voltage spikes that the controller uses to keep the motors turning at the same speed. The controller sends power to the Hall effect sensor and the signal wire also acts as the ground.
The controller counts the pulses from the sensor over a set time period (usually about 1/4 of a second) and compares the results. The controller then reduces the power of the faster motor. This is done by using a transistor named a thyristor. The controller's LEDs flash alternately while the slide is moving showing the controller's circuitry is operating normally.
