[QUOTE="tomslick, post: 653140, member: 306218"] [B]Problem solved[/B] Checked voltage at motor to stb connection and was showing 18.91v @ H & 13.54v @ V. Motor moved at Local buttons. Installed short lead from stb to motor with same voltage results and it drove from STB. Checked the termination of the long/original lead to find it water tight BUT many many strands of the outer cores broken. The wind must have moved the lead side to side to break these cores. Retermination of the long lead with new plug and good wind protection and the system is running perfect again. The outer cores must have been able to supply current to the motor for local operation but not Motor Drive Signal and Currrent. Thanks to all who gave me suggestions and maybe this experience may help someone else. [/QUOTE]
