Been dreading the day, and here it is. Wild game Innovations motor, but I got over 10 years out of it. I bought a new one some time back, just for this. Grump grump grump.
And one more thing! What fuse is the right amperage for The Timer?

I had the replacement motor and was able to find where I had put it. The job really wasn’t so bad, but it took 3 sizes of Allen wrenches, and I had to scrape off 10 years of dirt.

If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.

Dang, maybe my luck is used up. Bad thought.
But, it’s working now. The twin fawns had some corn this morning.
We all talk bad about Wildgame Innovations, but I have to say that the feeder box was very well designed and easy to work on. Of course I needed the right parts and the right Allen wrenches, or it would have been near impossible to replace that motor. It wasn’t like working on an English car, thank goodness.
