Course you can ... ;)

The motors actually turn parts inside the manifold. When you plug the tester into the motor, by moving the direction switch, the motor gets a message to turn. If the vis motor is working you'll hear the motor turn and get the green light. Simples.

Yep both motors.

When you have the switch on the tester set to the right motor you are testing - flip the direction toggle to make it move the motor. Then flip the direction toggle the other way. The motor turns through about 45 degrees. Basically as you change the direction, the motor should move and the green light come on.

The "Change Direction" sends the motor backwards and forwards, Rossy, didnt know you were in Dundee mate.

If any the motors isnt doing anything, then its pumped, and needs repaired/replaced.

Thanks for that advice tested tonight and looks like my balance vis motor is gubbed I get a green light but no movement from the motor in any direction ... This all I need at the moment still trying to rebuild up my dash and centre console having trouble with wiring and now a new vis needed, had a look at vulcan racing didn't realise how expensive they are to replace ..oh well need to source one and get that tested so I can pass on the tester asap .
