Search of the part number on the motor yields http://forums.arcade-museum.com/archive/index.php/t-46634.html Identifying it as a San Fransico Rush steering assembly with comments from our good friends Kenlayton and Yotsua
I found it here at happs. http://na.suzohapp.com/amusement_products/arcade_game_parts/50-8593-50 It goes without saying that Happs is expensive, but I know I didn't pay more than a 5th of that. Hopefully the motor isn't shot!

I'm derailing my own thread.
What are the challanges of picking 1 motor out now? Can this project be made to support more than 1 motor? Because it doesn't have to be this one I happen to have from SF Rush. The cheaper the better.
Howard_Casto:
Well I think the "challenge" would be that nobody has decided to work on this yet. We are just spit-balling here. Like I said, if somebody wants to try and write some avr code I'll do my best to help them, but I'm not a avr expert by any means and until we have a teensy or whatever that shows up as a FF enabled HID joystick and will actually send some data to a motor you've just got a collection of parts.
Unless you want to pay waaaay to much for happs interface board or hack up a Logitech wheel that is.

I looked at a SF Rush manual and by no way saw 90 VDC. The troubleshooting section said to look for voltage around 25V.
Anyway
