Studio Color Shutter Problems?

I have two studio colors 575s right next to each other, and one of them will not illuminate. The lamp is struck, and no errors appear, but the shutter won't open or something. Would that motor go out and not trigger an error?

  • I bought a bunch of motors off of eBay and was wondering if I could use them for this. They replace the iris motor, but not the shutter.

    The problem is intermittent. I haven't really noticed a pattern yet, but I suspect it might not work after the light has been on for a while, e.g. it gets knocked out by the heat. Anybody have any leads on where I can buy a replacement motor for this that might be less expensive than High End?

    And Puffyfish, thanks for the offer, but this will give me something to do at work next week.

    Thank you all for your help.
