    I have prepared a 3 motor structure with a car hub and a gear shaft.
    The tricky thing with motors is getting rid of the ground connection and unfortunately one of them is bothering me.
    With the electrical part, I worked a lot to create a box with all the connections, as the information in various forums shows errors in the connections.
    After the correction, I managed to get 2 motors running.

    Now I'm having trouble getting the game to work (Live for Speed) I have checked the Simtools settings, it gives me a connection, but the game doesn't work, I would appreciate help, I don't know what to check.

    Hello, problem, when connecting the plate, the motors begin to perform as an adjustment and move very little by themselves. Sometimes they start to move and turn very slowly without stopping in the same direction and even when stopped they make a noise like vibration.
    What can be?

    Yes, it is the first thing I have done, in fact the few times they work, they do it to the right and left. But sometimes they do not go or they start to turn in the same direction very slowly and especially at a standstill the noise they make

    I can't tell from the pictures how the pots are attached?

    How did you go about ground isolation?

    Can you please post pictures of all of your settings.

    Hello, I have managed to start the motors, but they are not going well, they make noise and when they feel like it they start moving in the same direction of rotation, reaching the limit of the potentiometers. I have reviewed the installation and it is OK, can the section of the cable that go to the potentiometers be very fine?

    The cables used to connect a pot can be pretty fine.

    Do you mean that the motors do not accurately following the input, like Square in SMC3?

    Can you please post a picture using Square in SMC3.

    If you have noise check all wiring layout, connections, cables and ground isolation.

    I have completely reviewed everything, cable to cable, the motors are isolated, the connection diagram is perfect and there is no way.
    When I plug in the USB port the motors make a garter movement and stop.
    I don't know what to check anymore?
    Where can I see information about the potentiometers and what are they for?

    The potentiometer that I use is the one in the photo, it is 10K and has a return stop, I don't know if the problem is in this?

    The pots provide positional feedback information and must be attached to the motors to do so, can you please post a picture of how your pots are attached.

    Good morning, I have ordered a new Arduino Uno board and I have assembled a single motor, something basic.
    I have managed to configure it with SMC3 Utiles and that it moves WELL, I attach a screenshot.
    But I can't get it to move with Simtools Engine Testing, I've already checked the communication port and it's OK.
    What can be?

    Thanks

    This Arduino is on Com Port 5 and that has to be set in Interface Settings.

    Please post pictures of all settings.
