I've tried removing each wire one by one from the loop box, the red one switches off the main PCB altogether, disabling the black wires going to the loop itself makes no difference, no matter what I do, the loop box won't reset?

How do I link it out? Here's the wiring diagram of the control panel.

A senior moment Andy :( So, how do I bypass it if there's a faulty wire to the loop as nothing I've disconnected so far works?

Ooops! sorry. :( Anyway, the black box that CAME know nothing about is actually made by CAME, I disconnected one wire at a time, that got me either a constant green light with a blink every second and a flashing green light on the board, or no power to the box.

I think I've hit on something, that black box in my picture turns out to be an after market loop detector, the sensitivity can be set for vehicles travelling over it, anyway, this is what's tripping, so I'm guessing that if the box is disconnected it disconnects the loop if that is faulty, or...

Agreed, it's not the cleanest wiring job, I didn't put it in, but it has worked for nearly twenty years.

The wiring info CAME sent has all the connector blocks but doesn't show what wiring goes anywhere, also, my system has a seperate reset box, this is not shown at all? I've mentioned this to them, I also asked if there were connectors that I could check the voltages, no reply?

The PCB board is ZA3, CAME just sent the setup.

Excessive is the right word, I haven't changed a motor before but I put in the new one in around an hour, the guy charges £38 per hour, at that rate he has allowed himself, besides the cost of the motor, 24 hours to put it in. I know the two sensors are working because a light flashes on the...

I've had a quick look at the setup they sent and basically it's wiring Schematics, as the wiring hasn't changed, I think it's something else but I will re check that everything is where it's supposed to be just in case.

I've just had a message from CAME, they want the PCB number and motor type, that said they would send a setup, if that didn't work, I could call them when by the control and I would need a multi meter.

What gets me is the established gate company's owner came to check out the fault, was here for 10 mins, told me that the right hand motor was at fault which it isn't and then wants to charge be £114 for the callout, then £1300 for the motor and instalation! I'm waiting for a reminder to pay...

Well....the new motor, the one that gate guy said had failed and the one that he disconnected the wire from the connector to supposably check is fitted, and no difference, I still can't reset the reset box, I'm waiting for CAME to get back to me?

I had that a few years ago with an electricuted fly, it blew a connection on the board but I soldered a wire across and all was well, nothing on the board this time though!

I've just had a reply from CAME:- "Sorry to hear your having issues although you seem to have a solution. I’d fit your new motor and commission it and hopefully that’ll be an end to your problems. If you confirm your motor and control panel I can sand you the quick start guide to help you...

Thanks, I've just messaged them.

Thanks for the replies, maybe i'm using the wrong term? The gates fail to work, what I usually do is open the box and press the reset button a green LED flashes and then stays on, there,s also a green LED on the PCB board that does the same. The gates are fifteen years old now, I didn't install...

The box in my hand in pic 2, when working correctly has a green constant LED, when it trips the red one is on, when the reset button on the bottom is pressed the green light flashes then it should stay on, it doesn't?

Thanks but I tried that first, clean as a wistle :confused:

Lets just get the gates working ;)
