Here’s another mpu option.

Quoted from KenH:I worked on a JP that had this problem. The l/r movement was so sluggish, that the trex could not find his center before the CPU would disable the l/r movement.
To correct the problem, I added full-wave rectification for the l/r motor, which greatly improved the trex l/r movement. If you look at the circuit board above, you'll see 3 diodes. 2 are for full wave rectification of the shaker motor, and 1 is for half wave rectification of the trex l/r motor. Since the AC feed for this comes from a center-tapped part of the transformer (see manual pg. 46), you can easily add one diode and one fuse to the circuit board above and feed a full wave rectified signal to the l/r motor (see page 49, left side). If you want to change it back to half wave rectified (original) later, you simply remove one of two the fuses for the l/r motor.

I posted this question on an old thread that was marked solved, so this might be a better place to ask .
I’m looking to add full wave rectification for the left right motor and I want to double check so I don’t mess anything up.
Am I running a wire with fuse and diode from the gry-grn wire on J1 to the gry-blu wire on J3?
Quoted from Toine79:Could somebody post me some close-up pictures of the Cn1 connector and the wiring of that connector on the power supply board?
I cannot read the colors on the schematics in my manual. Thanks.
Quoted from Marco1973:Making the pictures I posted, I saw some cable desoldered.
So, now it's your turn.
Can someone post a picture to show me where they are to be soldered to ?
Thx

Quoted from BleacherBum:Per the wiring on my JP (see attached picture) assuming that this is the same location as your request
The yellow/blue.wire attaches to the same point as the double yellow wires. The red/blue wire attaches to the terminal on the right that is currently not occupied. That terminal also has a small bit of the red wire that someone has cut off.
It appears that both of those wires were cut. It is curious as to why. After reattaching those wires I would have my finger on the off switch when powering up just in case things go sideways.

Thanks!
Quoted from Jackaltr:New to the club. I really need T-Rex teeth. I need them very badly. Is that mod still available at all?
