I've got about 6 of these lights and two have stopped working recently with the same fault. Lamp comes on but neither of the wheels turn. The gobo wheel spins on start up to align and the stops. Is there a possible simple solution to this or am I going to have to bite the bullet and send them for repair?

do you have them on sound to light or are you controlling them with DMX?

If you are using them sound to light- get one of the working units, set it to master, and set the other non-working unit/s to slave, link them up and see if it jumps back to life when controlled by DMX. if so, then you have a problem with the internal microphone.

Sounds like a plan I'll give that a try.
