O/S tach problem
I have a Optime L-90K with a D31 diagnastic indicating a bad or missing O/S disc. The problem persists with all rotors tried. First the O/S disks on the rotors are of the old style, with a new style tack sensor (black). I believe these disks should be replaced with the new more reflective type. I have tried one with the new type disk and I am having the same problem. Can you let me know what the spacing for the tack sensor to the drive spindle is and anything else I might need to know regarding the status of the sensor and it's adjustement.
Thank you for your much appreciated help

Reply bySorry but I have no experience with the new sensor as it came out after I retired but I would expect that using the newer version of the O/S disks would probably work better than the older ones but that is just a guess on my part. I am traveling right now and won't be back home until the middle of December so I can't help you with the spacing until then.
