Makes total sense.
After soldering most of the enamel off of the leads I am getting a reading of 29.2 Ohms.
Success!
Using still just the 5v USB supply I can actuate it in either the left or right direction by changing the voltage and ground leads.
Will be completely controllable by an...
At closer examination of the original contact on the PCB, I can see that yes the copper color is in fact the enamel and the wire is a silver color underneath.
This is probably the problem (trying to pass current through effectively an insulation).
It is a digital one. The enamel situation...
There is a magnet seen mounted in the steering arm. Also, in the coil there are the two (coil amplifier?) magnets. ie: the two pieces will attract each other and are effectively the north and south of the coil magnet. (check pictures above)
How can i check continuity? I am getting a resistance...
Well I figured it was something like that so I tried applying a 5v usb supply to it thinking the current direction would create the different magnetic field but nothing happened.
The motor works however when doing this. I am familiar with H-bridges and have set up many.
So I thought maybe the...
added photos to the original post showing the mechanism.
you can see the resting place and one of two of the triggered positions.
thanks for your reply

Hi, new to forums but looks great so far.
I have a very old RC car I was planning to re-purpose that has a rear motor and front magnetic coil driven left/right steering.
I can control the motor no problem but can't seem to figure out or find a way...
