I’m so sorry to read of Terry’s passing, my deepest condolences to his family and friends not least his colleagues.
He was a pillar of support to all Starlight Xpress users and will be be sadly missed.
We had many conversations at Astrofest, he was so helpful.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT Terry.
RIP,
Jack

Robert,
I checked the connections by removing inspecting replacing one at a time all looked ok.
The fault could be the NexStar handset.
Until I test on another mount or try another handset I’m guessing.
Thanks for your input,
JackThe StarSense handset fired up.
I need to test my NexStar handset on another mount to confirm its faulty.
Any offers?

JackTrevor,
Thanks for your advices.
I have a StarSense handset which I will try.
There was an issue with after a firmware upgrade, work in progress on that fix.

JackSteve,
Sorry I have only just seen your message.
I’m sure I ticked the notify box.
The books are yours.

JackRobin,
Thank you for the link.
I see what to do now.
I’ll have a go at it.
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THEIR ADVICES.
JackJames,
I looked at both links.
Followed instructions got the badge off but no bolt. Took the dovetail plate off but no access to bolt (on either side).
I think the manufacturer changed design to what’s described in link, and special tools are probably needed to service it.
No one appears to provide such a service.
Thanks for your help,

David,
I will see you at the Jan 18 meeting.
Thank you for the mount head.
Longer flexible rods definitely work better.
Regards,
Jack
