Only while switched on in reverse, and not while coasting to a stop, being turned manually either forward or backwards, or switched on running forward, my G0709 makes a regular snapping noise. The frequency of the noise is always the same and does not vary with the gear selected.
This started just a few days ago. Today when I first started the lathe, it did not make the noise, but after running it for a bit, the noise was back whenever I ran in reverse.
I can't tell by ear whether it is coming from the motor or the electronics cabinet next to it.
Is this a symptom that folks recognize? Bad capacitor in a reverse circuit?
Thanks!
