Hello there,

While working as usual, the powder motor stopped working. It did come on again one time but is dead since. I don't have the exact electric diagram for this machine but i have one very close that has worked on the past. The number of the wiring diagram on the panel is: SORDKMS/Z 100.002 Serial 512857

The electician said that the problem is that switch B107 is not closing. My problem is that my diagram does not have the "Map" that shows the location of all the switches in the machine.

Does any one has that page where its shown where the micro-switches are? Or do you know where that B107 migth be(electician wanted to take machine covers OS off to try and follow the wire involved, but i rather make sure it is entirely necesary)

I know that motor works because i actuated the C14 contactor and motor ran. The contactor D18 should be closed when machine is turned on, and mine is not(caused by the B107 acording to electric guy) and that is the cause C14 is not closing automatically.

Any way thanks for taking 1/2 an hour to read and any ideas are very appreciated.

    Hi Moe,


    I hope you’re doing well. My name is Eduardo and I’m from Monterrey, Mexico.


    I recently found your old post from 2010 about a 1979 Heidelberg SORMZ, serial number 512857, where you were troubleshooting an electrical issue related to the microswitches.


    This was a big surprise because I am now the owner of that exact machine, serial 512857. After looking into its history and comparing photos, it appears that you may have owned this machine before the person who eventually sold it to me.


    We are currently trying to get the machine running again, and we seem to have a problem with the safety microswitch circuit. The machine will not start normally, but when our electrician temporarily bypasses the microswitch safety circuit for testing, the machine runs and the stop controls work correctly.


    I saw in your old post that you were also troubleshooting the electrical system and looking for the location of the microswitches, including B107.


    Do you remember how you eventually solved the problem? Also, if you still happen to have the electrical diagrams, manuals, microswitch location map, or any other documentation for this machine, it would be extremely helpful to us.


    I know it has been many years, so even anything you remember about the machine or the repair would be greatly appreciated.


    Thank you very much for your time. It was actually pretty amazing to find a 2010 post about the exact Heidelberg that is now in our shop.


    Best regards,
