Default 318ti cali part out

Haha! You're the man Bradestar.! Good to be on your toes. [emoji41]

12v to the motor to see if it operates without skipping is a good start. The real test is under load of a top. What I do is just open the motor up and check all the gear teeth. Toothless gears don't work so well. At minimum, you hope the top gear (installed) is intact.
