Hi Ben,
Have you tried running this motor arm when it is off the gate? If you are still getting the same issue when there is no load there is either going to be an issue with the internals on the motor which is causing resistance therefore triggering the reversal fault. Or an issue with the encoder.
Usually with encoder faults, the gate will run quickly for a second or so and then stop. So in this case I do not think the encoder is going to be the issue. I believe that something internally is putting up resistance against the motor, one way to try and resolve this would be to increase the force which is done in 'Level Two Programming'. But this is more than likely going to be a temporary fix until the motor faults again.
I hope this was useful.
Many Thanks,
Aiden.
