[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4197124, member: 5412"] So, I go to one of the farms last week. Cam shows the feeder isn't throwing. Full drum of corn. The controller showed a low battery even though there is a solar panel that is about 10 years old. Tried to do a manual throw with the motor barely turning. Battery has been in the feeder for about 5 years. Gotta be the issue. Ordered one, went over today to change out with the proper testing equipment. Battery fully charged, solar panel working correctly, and tested the voltage going into the motor with a test run. Bad motor. The only thing that wasn't brought along. So, another trip to fix that shortly. I have a couple of unused feeder motors in the shop. Need to get that drum to feed. The corn will turn into a black goo if left in there. [/QUOTE]
