Hi Guys,
The emergency stop switch has stopped working on my lathe. I’ve taken the physical switch out of the front panel, and checked it for continuity with my multimeter, and it works fine. So something is up further down stream, on the control board.
I’ve googled the issue, and have seen others have experienced the same problem - but the only solution I’ve found is to replace the entire control board... which seems a bit much, considering the lathe works perfectly fine in all other regards.
Has anyone else had this issue? I’m assuming a burnt out component on the board, which I’m willing to hunt down and replace, but If someone else has already got a solve for it, I’d rather not go through lots of probing and schematic noodling if I don’t have to.
cheers
Jason
