Furuno Open Array

[RivFish]

Hi,
Strange request, but here goes.../
Have an old open array from a Furuno 1900 unit and would like for it to rotate for a display in a nautical room setting.
Is there an easy way to apply 12V power to facilitate this.
I was thinking straight 12V to array (2 wire) without all the connections going through the display.

Thanks,

It is a very old radar so your plan would most likely work. Newer radars require a clocked signal for the motor so it isn't always a simple direct connection of power. In this case, I think it is.

What a cool idea - PLEASE post a pic when you get it working.
