CC Motor not turning on

Hi all,

Can someone lend me a helping hand with a CC motor that is apparently not working?

I just installed a KR Kestis with a eco max chassis. Everything is working properly, except the motor. I just won’t move.

I cannot completely rule out an electronics issue, but but as far as I can see, the wires look fine. I hooked it up to battery + and to power pin 6 with a 22 ohm resistor (I followed the instructions I found in some of the threads here).

Could someone check my blade config and an example blade style in order to rule out a programming issue?

Blade config (three blades):

 BladeConfig blades[] = {
 { 0, WS281XBladePtr<144, bladePin, Color8::GRB, PowerPINS<bladePowerPin2, bladePowerPin3> >(),
    WS281XBladePtr<1, blade2Pin, Color8::GRB, PowerPINS<bladePowerPin4> >(),
    SimpleBladePtr<CreeXPE2WhiteTemplate<0>, NoLED, NoLED, NoLED, bladePowerPin6, -1, -1, -1>(),
    CONFIGARRAY(presets) },
};

Blade style example (main / CC / motor):

Preset presets[] = {
{ "ANHGraf;common",  "ANHGraf/tracks/track1.wav",
StylePtr<RotoRain>("0,38402,65535 ~ 0 0 0 ~ 0,38402,65535 0 34702,65535,65535 34702,65535,65535 34702,65535,65535 18501 65535,7816,0 28500 34702,65535,65535 65535,7816,0 28500 34702,65535,65535 2 ~ 1800 34702,65535,65535 1 1800 0 0 ~ 0,38402,65535 0 0,38402,65535 0,38402,65535 2 ~ ~ ~ ~ 10992 10992"),

StylePtr<CC>("0,16174,65535 ~ 3 3 0 ~ 0,38402,65535 1 14386,65535,65535 14386,65535,65535 14386,65535,65535 ~ ~ ~ 14386,65535,65535 ~ ~ 14386,65535,65535 0 ~ ~ 14386,65535,65535 1 2000 3 0 ~ 0,38402,65535 1 ~ 0,30457,65535 4 ~ ~ ~ ~ 10992 10992"),

StylePtr<Layers< Rgb<128,128,128>,InOutTrL<TrFade<300>,TrFade<500>>>>(),

"ANHGraf"
},

Many thanks in advance!

The config seems fine (but only goes up to half speed).
If you short LED6 to BATT- or GND with a wire, does the motor move?

3

Yes, it turns. Could there be any other part in the config that causes the issue?

4

What if you change Rgb<128,128,128> to White?

5

Still not turning. I do not understand it.

What if you change this:

This did the trick. Many thanks, Prof!
