I found a brand new Dynamotor on the internet last week, so hopefully I will get the powersupply up and running again. So my first step is to replace the the actual Dynamotor.

This is the old dynamotor that need to be replaced

This is the dynamotor which I found on "Marktplaats" for only € 15. But I was able to trade it for 3 cougar bateries

The wiring looks new and is in good order. The only thing I need to do is to renew some grease inside.

Due to the age of this dynamotor I had to check and grease the bearings.
