    2D124D8C-1FF8-4353-A202-22BCFC851AC4.jpeg key #20 is working but in the console it doesn’t tell me where I’m at. I have to go to the fountain and see where I’m at. Any idea? I’m running a Heidelberg 102 zp 1994 cptronic

    Feedback from the potentiometer? It’s odd, though, because Ive always been of the belief that if the pot fails, the key shouldn’t respond.

    I know. It is weird. I have swapped the potentiometer and the motor also from another key and it the same problem.

    I’m going to take a stab at it and say it’s originating at MWE or MOT.

    Do you understand there’s a calibration procedure for pot and motor to work properly?

    I know what are you talking about but don’t know how to do it.

    Disregard my comment re. the boards. It would be wise to inform, in your message, actions taken prior to inquiring how to fix a problem.
