 If replacing the fuse does not help, the motor can be tested using the following procedure:
a. Disconnect the battery from the control board and from the charging source (solar
panel or transformer)
b. Disconnect the large Red and large Black motor wire from the control board termi-
nals L1-1 and L1-2
c. Take the red and black wires from the motor and touch them directly to the battery
terminals. This will cause the motor to run. The polarity of the red and black motor wires
on the battery positive and negative will cause the motor to extend or retract. Swap po-
larity to cause the opposite reaction from the motor.
d. If the motor moves then we can assume if the board was putting out voltage from
the two terminals L1-1 and L1-2 the motor would move.
e. If the motor does not move the wire is most likely damaged, inspect the wire for
damage.
 If both the above are done (fuse replaced and the motor tested direct off the battery) then
the source of the issue is one of the clear relay blocks above the L1-1 and L1-2 terminals are
no longer functioning and the board should be repaired or replaced.
Dual gate, E-S 1000D: One or both motors will not move and the display reads OP or CL and
then numerically counts up
The display is showing the correct information as if the board was activated and the motor was
moving. There are only 3 possible causes in this case:
 Highest likelihood is the motor fuse(s) are blown
 Second most likely is a motor wire not attached to the correct terminals (L1-1 and L1-2
for primary L2-1 and L2-2 for secondary) or the wire(s) leading to the motor(s) are
damaged
 Third is the motor relay is burnt from a power surge.
Fixes for counting with no movement:
 Open the middle and third fuse boxes from the left (the fuse boxes are in the lower left cor-
ner, they are hinged on the top and if a flat head screw driver is inserted in the slot on the
bottom it will flip open). If one or both are blown replace the fuse(s) - they are 8A 240V
standard fuse. If one arm is moving and the other is not, you can swap the center and right
hand fuse to see if the issue swaps motor and ensure the fuse is the issue if you do not have
a multi-meter to test the fuse.
