In this video we see what a burned out motor looks like using the oscilloscope and learn how to check your own motors using a multimeter and some resistors.
Hi there, welcome to the hobby. Oscilloscopes measure voltage so in order to create a voltage difference between the windings of the motors, you solder resistors between them in order for the scope to be able to measure the voltage.
@@coasterchris01 Hey, the problem with this is that oscilloscopes measure voltage, and in essence you have 0 voltage differential between in a winding, especially if it's blown. you need to create a voltage differential between the "start" and "end" of the winding. to see the current induced (which is the waveform) you need to create the voltage differential with the resistors. I hope it makes sense? Let me know if now. I'll make a video.
