Hi Mick is in the proverbial brown stuff, my lathe seems to have expired and the switch gear is all electronic stuff on 3 circuit boards ,I have no problem with basic electrics but this stuff is beyond me ! , there is power in but nothing works,no smell of burning or smoke damage , the motor tests out as instructions from the dealer but as using a phone is v awkward for me we are doing every thing by email so its getting long winded , I have suggested to him that I parcel all the wiring and switch gear /motor etc and send it to him for repair ,and am awaiting answer , is any one local to me good with this sort of stuff and able to come and have a shufty please ? Tea ,beer sandwiches gladly provided and petrol money too many thanks in advance mick :clapping: :crazy: :80:

Replacement electronics board for my small Clarkes Lathe -- £155.00--- speed control board & bridge rectifier from "bang.good" £2.18 & free post. Needed a little Hoody mod to fit but is now powering my lathe O.K, hope Micks works out.

If it's still under warranty, that would be your best option. I might have been able to help you find the faulty part though.

 

It would be interesting to know if the dealer repairs it or just sends out a replacement board - probably the latter I think as no-one seems to "repair" things now.
