Claw Errors!

theres another photo if it helps. the battery is charging andf not in the robot in that picture but we just put it in

Its likely not your robot. If you can answer the question I asked a bit higher up i might be able to solve your program :grin:

our claw doesn’t wanna go up and the motor is making a noise

oh right, we are driving it in driver control

You may have a dead motor. You can contact Vex for a replacement through the RMA process at this link http://link.vex.com/rma.
Or you could try using a different motor.

alright, i dont think think we can get a motor or have a different one, is there a way to charge the motor?

we will ask our teacher

thank you for your suggestion

Nope. Once you get a dead motor, as far as I know, you are doing to need a new one. Back when I did IQ, i used to go through a couple motors every year.

oh ok, well apperently we do have other motors. Do you mean the battery, brain, sensor?

No, try switching out the motor on your claw

ok thanks i will try that

thank you for the help

No problem! thats what the forum is for

We put a new motor on the claw, its driving the same as it was before

should we try taking off a different motor and replacing it?

wich motor do you mean the one that is sitting on top of the motor or the one that is on the side of the motor

sorry we meant the claw not the motor

is it possible for you to send a video of what is happening
