Schwintec circuit card replacement

I wonder if there is a way to test the motor itself? A new circuit board on a dead motor would be throwing good money away.

So, to answer my own question I contacted RVTesters and in less than 30 minutes received a reply: Do you have anyway to apply 12vdc to the two metal tabs on the top of the motor? If so, apply voltage to those if the motor operates then the hall sensor replacement will suite you, if it does not turn then our hall sensor replacement board will not be a viable option.

Good question.

I bet some of the talented folks on here could devise a solution to testing the motor independently of the board.
 
Here's the one I replaced in my full wall slide. Has been working smoothly for over a year now. Not holding my breath though...

Schwintec motor circuit card replacement

Thanks for your help. Not going to replace the circuit card am replacing the motor for about the same as the motor.
 
Good Motor Bad Circuit Board

While on a trip from New England to Alaska, my slide system failed. My controller was showing a wiring fault, and I had to use the override mode to operate it. I was able to get a new cable, and with the new cable running out a window and back to the controller, I was still getting the same wiring fault...
I then replaced the motor, and the slide worked normally. Since the old motor worked in override, and a new cable did not clear the wiring fault, I could only conclude that the circuit board was the problem.

Oddly, on that same trip, I had several unexplained electronic glitches, from blown fuses and a fried circuit board in my transfer switch. These occurred at different times and while using a surge protector while on shore power.
