    Testing Electrical Motor

    I am trying to work out what is wrong with the internal blower in my CAR. So I need to connect it to a power source, anyone know anything suitable to replicate 12volts that a car produces?

    Or alternatively what would the correct leads need to be to run it directly from the battery.

    The motor itself only has 2 connectors, + and -

    Thanks for any help
    Jon

    I Imagine the cheapest thing would be a 12V LA bike battery, probably get one from the scrappers for a 5er that still makes 11ish volts

    You can just use any wire? Depending on the size of the motor you may want 2-3mm diameter wire but still. Does it use spade connectors?

    Be Careful on the Internet! I ran and tackled a drive by mining attack today. It's not designed to do anything than provide fake texts (say!)
