    Have you double checked the fconnectors, sometimes they can come loose but appear sound. If all's ok with all conectors check the motor, is there a light on can you move it with the buttons. If these are all ok you could try flashing a new image

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

      Go into motor setup and try manually move it. See if it works then?

      Did it work before?

          Dm500 clones have very bad problems with motors they are hit and miss, if you use rotor dm518s is much better
