Nova Comet II encoder wheel problem

[Kim Metzger]

I just installed a new encoder wheel after the original broke. I think it broke because I reassembled it incorrectly after replacing the drive belt.
I carefully placed the wheel between the openings of the optical sensor, but the readout says zero. I contacted Teknatool support and the tech told me the only thing he could think of was the wiring to the optical sensor may have come loose. I just checked it again and found no loose wiring. Hoping someone may know what the problem is. Best, Kim Metzger

I didn't have much luck with teknatool service till I got put on the phone with Maurice both times I needed them. He was very helpful.

If you had a schematic we could try and help but a lot of today's electronics are beyond me.
