I have a 3 Allen Bradley 161 VFDs I put a 220 volt 1 Horsepower on my 1/2 horsepower drill press but have purchased a different one so that I can put the original one on my mill.

I did not have any trouble with my original VFD but the new one (used from a surplus dealer) will not work. The Display and some LED lights work and I have enabled the start button and changed the setting so that the jumper is not needed.

The motor will not start and the start LED is not lit. Allen Bradley does not have technical support unless you pay an annual fee via a corporate account.

Any ideas? is this unit DOA?

Thanks

-John
