Flash output low voltage - cooperim - 28-01-2015

Hi

I've got an issue with the flash output on my mhouse motor which is only providing 9v to a 12v flasher - I've only noticed as the light now is much dimmer than it was initially. Any idea what might have caused this?

Thanks

Did you measure that voltage on the board side or the flasher side? Is the flasher cable in good condition and not damaged by, say, moisture?

Measured on the motor side but with the flasher still in place (thoughts re voltage drop possibly?)

Flasher is three months old and positioned inside. All cabling under ground through trunking and was ok previously - nothing has changed in the interim.

Yes, I was hoping it was something simple like oxidized wires. I have no other ideas about it.
