Hi,

First time installing a shaker motor and I can't seem to get it working. I mounted the shaker and board. Plugged the shaker into the board. Then power into board and finally the long brown wire into the back of the box in the empty connector.

The shaker is enabled in the settings but the coil test produces nothing. I read on another thread something about the ground not being connected to J16 but that looks OK as far as I can see.

Any ideas? I am stuck.

Thanks!

Read thru the link a couple times and finally figured it out. It's working now!

Thanks LTG! I appreciate the help!

And your missing piece of the puzzle?

I needed to install the ground harness on J16 in the backbox then run it back to the shaker board. That step was missing from the directions I was following and from the video in that link above.
